Hellstrom's Hive by Frank Herbert:
Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas
Very creepy novel; everything goes along normally for a while, and then you find out that a small group of humans have created their own underground society. They could have been Shakers, but no: they are determined to split off from the rest of us and evolve toward a more efficient model of society. That seemingly innocent farm down the road? Don't you believe it. Select
an invention:
Chemical Orders Use of chemical triggers for behavior and behavior modification.
|
Hive-Sign Specialized sign language developed by an offshoot of humanity.
|
Nightmask Night vision mask (similar to a diving mask) with an infrared light source.
|
Procreative Stump A woman's torso, kept alive for the purpose of using the womb as an incubator.
