Evolution

Just finished reading Stephen baxter's Evolution.
Itis a great read.
It follows the evolution of mamals and a chain of DNA from their beginings at the feet of the dinosaurs to their eventual extinction and the last humaniods.it tells plausible stories using sound researched data (therefore much better than books like "first and last men" by Olaf stapledon - with which it is compared on the back cover).

I love a story that tells stories in epic time frames and of plausible futures.

this was almost as good as alister Reynold's revelation space
