About This Item
London: Dennis Dobson, [1979]. First British and first hardcover edition. A fine copy in a nearly fine dust jacket with tanning to upper edges of jacket and spine panel. (28837). Octavo, boards. A genetically engineered creature created by the machines of the Artificial Creation laboratory attains godlike power and creates a peaceful utopian Earth -- which is boring -- so he reintroduces religion, then war. The novel is reminiscent of Jerome Bixby's classic story "It's a Good Life.
