    I almost wish I hadn't read this story -- that is a brand new nightmare to my collection! It is also one of the best things I have ever read, and something I desperately wish to have written myself. A Lovecraftian biotech tale.

    Blood Music won the Hugo and Nebula awards for novelette in 1984 and was later expanded into a novel.

    @cfabbro, would you mind changing the title to "Blood Music (1983)"?
