Bloom
Wil McCarthy
SOJALS rating Good (2/5) I first read this in November 1999 and most recently in September 2001. A hundred years in the future, humanity is all but extinguished. A " bloom " of out-of-control technogenic nano-organisms known as the "Mycora", voraciously consumed all animate and inanimate material. It enveloped first the Earth and then the inner planets. The only survivors were those who fled in the first few hours of the spawning of the Mycora. Some degree of safety was finally found amid the asteroid belt and even further out. On Ganymede, the journalist John Strasheim is recruited, rather to his surprise, to the flight crew of the Louis Pasteur, an interplanetary spaceship. This ship is designed to penetrate the Mycora of the inner planets and to drop probes so that at last humanity will have some idea of what has happened to the home worlds. However, it's never so straightforward. There's less than unanimous agreement about the flight in the first place, there's sabotage both before and during the flight, and perhaps the probes aren't quite what they seem. Plus of course they come under increasingly-virulent attacks by the Mycora itself. This is pretty good. I enjoyed it the first time I read it, but enjoyed it rather more second-time around. There are some very exciting episodes, some deep thinking and a little real emotion in a plot that smoothly covers a range of scale from personal interaction to space war.

    http://www.booklore.co.uk/PastReviews/McCarthyWil/Bloom/BloomReview.htm
    Bloom Wil McCarthy Publisher : Millennium Published : Wil McCarthy 1998 ISBN : HB 1-85798-593-1 Publishers Write-Up In the late 21st century, man-made, self-replicating organisms called mycora - smaller than bacteria - mutate and sweep across the globe in a chain reaction so swift and deadly there is no time to do anything but flee from an Earth destroyed by the science created to sustain it. Now the remnants of humanity, clinging to the asteroid belt and the moons of Jupiter, are about to face their greatest test. Mycora are incorporating gene sequences to elude human defences, perhaps even to thrive in the harsh environment of the outer system. The only way to counter this is to go to the diseased heart of the Mycosystem - Earth. How can the few surviving members of mankind hope to overcome something which, if it obeys the laws of physics, will overwhelm the cosmos? Wil McCarthy Website Readers Review Review by Nigel (191100) Rating (8/10) Review by Nigel
    Although this is Wil McCarthy's fifth novel I've not seen this author before. I purchased the book purely on the contents of the write-up, which sounded intriguing.

    Del Rey September 1998; $24.00 hardcover 309 pp; ISBN 0-345-40857-8
    Very Highly Recommended
    Rating: "A/A+". A thoughtful hard-sf novel of ideas. This is a major work by an oustanding young writer. It's been twenty years since humanity was driven from Earth and the Inner System by a runaway Bloom of mycora, a [nano] "technologically generated lebensform" (TGL) that's eaten all of Earth's life (and most of its crust). Humans have retreated to the moons of Jupiter and the Belt the Immunity (Munies) and Gladholders, respectively where constant vigilance is required to keep the Mycosystem at bay. The mycora are generally thought to have been created in an industrial accident, but human malice or an extrasolar origin can't be ruled out. The viewpoint character (who isn't the strong point of the book, but is more believable than his girlfriend), is a part-time newsnet columnist in Ganymede, a member-state of the Immunity a rather Teutonic, no-nonsense culture, contrasted nicely with the more laid-back, Latinate culture in the Gladholdings. The Gladholders may be more technically advanced. The Immunity is sending a well-protected (they hope) ship to the Inner System the first since the Evacuation to plant sensors and scout the Mycosystem. The ship leaves early, after a sabotage attempt, and makes an unscheduled stop in the Gladholdings for fuel and supplies....

    http://squat.net/ps28/parool1001.txt
    Die honden? Die knokploeg? Ach, het liep wat uit de hand ROB ROMBOUTS AMSTERDAM - Stadsdeel Oost/Watergraafsmeer moet het gedeeltelijk gekraakte pand Pretoriusstraat 28 onteigenen zodat een woningbouwvereniging het pand kan opknappen voor sociale woningbouw. Het huis is verwaarloosd en eigenaar J. McCarthy is niet van plan het te renoveren. Dit zei een van de krakers, Maarten Herzberg, gisteravond als inspreker op een raadsvergadering van het stadsdeel. Herzberg bewoont samen met vier andere krakers twee verdiepingen. ''Het liefst zou ik zelf vast op een etage gaan wonen, maar ik ben al blij als het huis geschikt wordt gemaakt voor sociale huur. Als de woningen maar niet worden opgeknapt en verkocht zodat McCarthy er met miljoenen vandoor kan,'' aldus Herzberg. Begin vorige maand moest de ME eraan te pas komen toen een 'knokploeg' en krakers elkaar te lijf gingen. De eerste en derde verdieping werden in februari gekraakt omdat de ruimtes volgens de krakers lange tijd onbewoond waren. De tweede verdieping werd officieel gehuurd door tabakshandelaar Ghavani, die op nummer 30 een winkel bestiert. In werkelijkheid woonde er volgens de krakers echter een ander die ook op het adres ingeschreven stond. Rond middernacht op 1 september hadden volgens de krakers 'vijftig vriendjes van de eigenaar' zich in de winkel verzameld. ''Iedereen die naar de gekraakte etages onderweg was of daar vandaan kwam werd uitgescholden en bedreigd. Een half uur later ging de knokploeg naar de tweede verdieping om daar de boel te slopen. De spullen van de huurder werden door de ramen op straat geggooid en de woning werd vernield. Uiteindelijk is de politie de winkel binnengevallen en zijn de meest agressieve knokploegleden gearresteerd,'' aldus Herzberg. Op het politiebureau werd als compromis bepaald dat de bewoner een maand op de tweede etage kon blijven, maar dat hij gezelschap kreeg van een kennis van de tabakshandelaar, volgens de krakers een lid van de knokploeg. Mede omdat deze man twee 'reusachtige' honden meenam, durfde de bewoner niet meer op de etage te komen. De honden, die volgens de krakers maar spaarzaam werden uitgelaten, veroorzaakten geluidsoverlast. ''Zo erg dat de halve buurt in zijn ochtendjas op de stoep stond. Uiteindelijk werden de honden door de politie in beslag genomen.'' Als de eigenaar er zo'n bende van maakt, zou het goed zijn als de boel onteigend zou worden, zegt Henk Jan Kuipers van huurteam Oost, die werd ingeschakeld door de bewoner van de tweede verdieping. ''Huurders zijn er door een knokploeg uitgezet. De mobiele eenheid moest optreden, er is openlijk geweld gepleegd. Bovendien is er achterstallig onderhoud. En het gaat om drie distributiewoningen. Het stadsdeel kan de eigenaar onder druk zetten zodat een woningcorporatie het pand voor een redelijke prijs overneemt.'' Volgens advocaat David Allick, die optreedt voor zowel Ghavani als McCarthy, wil de laatste subsidie aanvragen om het pand op te knappen. ''Het stond geen jaar leeg. We gaan eerst een aannemer zoeken en eventueel stappen we naar de rechter om de krakers het pand uit te krijgen.'' De bewoner van de tweede verdieping is niet door een knokploeg 'geholpen' om de woning te verlaten, zegt Allick. ''Hem is verzocht te vertrekken.'' Volgens de advocaat betrof het overigens een uit de hand gelopen vriendendienst. ''Ghavani logeerde vaak bij zijn vriendin. Toen het dak lekte zei hij tegen de bewoner van drie hoog dat die wel in zijn woning op de tweede verdieping kon verblijven.'' Over het opstootje waarbij de mobiele eenheid uitrukte, zegt de advocaat: ''Kijk wat de oorzaak is. Die krakers hadden vervelend gedaan in de winkel. Dat er een knokploeg is ingeschakeld, is pertinent onjuist.'' Later belt hij weer. ''De eigenaar wil geen stuk in de krant. Hij heeft al genoeg gesodemieter gehad met dat pand.''

A grab bag of science fiction themes and devices, Bloom sets the scene in bold strokes, giving the reader the chance to infer much of what other authors spell out detail by microscopically painful detail. Virtual reality, biotech, nanotech and space travel all play essential roles in this fast-paced novel with its wryly irreverent point-of-view. In the year 2106, humanity has been reduced to a huddled mass of apathetic refugees uninterested even in that most basic of drives, procreation. Grouped tightly together in the Immunity amid giant Jupiter's moons, they are the last bastion of the species. A fungus-like, self-replicating terror called
