    (Found... Almost Certainly) 1980s. AIDS "cure" alters DNA of all future-born children.

    Basically, the book is about a changing culture. Someone finds a "cure" for AIDS (this was back when AIDS was a death sentence), but the "cure" has an unintended consequence. It screws-up the DNA of all future-born children, such that after puberty they switch biological sex periodically...

    Trying to find a book, part of a series, I read and enjoyed when I was younger. Search information below: Media - novel, part of a series by the same author Original year of publication - read this in the 1990s. I believe it was from the 70s. Major themes - young man is brutalized as a cadet...

    (Found) Help finding the Title/Author of a Sci-Fi book

    I read this book back in the 80's, so it is from that era or before. I think that the book was an omnibus printing of the original trilogy. As to the story line. There is an attack on Earth, and humans are kidnapped by aliens. On the way back to the aliens home world the human hero finds, and...

    (Found) Old paperback, human in a translucent cage

    I was packing some books years ago, saw one I'd missed, and set it aside to read later. I never found it again. The author's name may begin with a B and it may have been 20-40 years old. A human wakes up confined in a translucent cube-shaped cage. There is a small moss-like substance against...

    (Found) 70's book about Aliens turning humans into lobster type aliens

    I am looking for the name of a book about a alien race that looks similiar to lobsters and some humans end up with them and are transformed by surgical means into the aliens, with some success. I believe a feature of the aliens were that eating was considered a private matter done completely...

    (Found) Looking for SF book title

    I read this as a kid. Likely pre-1984. I'm probably murky on the details here. The lead characters were a man and a tall slender woman. An alien race that is taking over the universe captures the man and he is confined by himself for a long time. (I am facinated by solitude). They put the...

    (Found) Anyone recognise this? disease cure caused infertility, gender morphing offspring

    I remember a ton about this story, except title, author and when published! The way I recall it, Disease decimated planet (possibly AIDS so was probably written at least 25 yrs ago) Medical researchers cured it but the cure was another virus that killed the first one. Unintended result is...

    (Found) Strange Necrophilia / Pain = Good novel?

    This novel came out at least 20 to 30 years ago. I had it in white paperback, very little on the cover. I remember being amazed/repulsed by its entire concept at the time. The Necrophilia part was very weird: the society blessed the concept and gvt had three classes of corpses rated by how...
