"The Chimera Seed" by Matthew Tully
Product Description[Amazon.com]
Richard Tiernan created a bridge to immortality. Unfortunately, he died of a heart attack before he had a chance to drink the elixir that would have prevented his demise. Now his son Matthew, who was unaware of the discovery until his father's death, must decide its fate. When large pharmaceutical companies learn of its existence, a struggle develops to determine who will acquire the chemistry that would make them billions of dollars. But Richard Tiernan had a partner and co-developer of the immortality elixir. Upon realizing that a disastrous world situation could develop, he reverses his opinion about releasing the elixir to the public and conspires to destroy it. Matthew Tiernan becomes caught between the desire to mass produce the elixir for profit, or preserving it for a select few. The Chimera Seed is a story of greed, power and pharmaceutical espionage that attempts to shape the quality of life for those who can afford it.

MY THOUGHTS: This is a very good first by Matthew Tully book, written very well and I really enjoyed all the characters in this book. While I was reading this book I was thinking about the author's story line, Immortally. If you could make that choice would you take it? Although the after effects would surly not turn out good. If everyone was immortal what would this do to our resources? What would the moral issues be? This book really makes you think about all this. If you get a chance, pick this book up and read it. It is full of suspense and espionage. You will really enjoy this book!
