In the future, mankind has learned to manipulate their DNA, harnessing only the good genes, like intelligence, strength, and height. They called this prime DNA and humans rushed to get these new pDNA injections, which gave them superhuman-like qualities. Centuries later, however, their DNA became so engineered that humans rarely lived past the age of 30, thanks to a new deadly disease called the Kiss. The only cure is to receive an injection of oDNA, DNA from an Original human that hasn't been genetically altered. Problem is there aren't many Originals left.

After an exchange student with bubonic plague turns up in a Reno hospital, a contractor with identical symptoms dies in Los Angeles. The government‘s official stance is that the cases are isolated and the outbreak is under control. But George Mack, a 30-year public health veteran, quickly realizes this is no ordinary plague. The death toll is too high, and the spread pattern make no sense. As Reno’s hospitals fill with victims, Mack begins to believe that there is more to the epidemic than the CDC is letting on - and that he must take drastic steps if he hopes to save his city.

At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

In the heart of the South Pacific lies Point Nemo, the most desolate and remote place on Earth. At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

Unique and Clever
What do you do when your spaceship gets disabled on Pluto and you don’t have the resources to survive until a rescue ship can get to you? Niven’s answer is both unique and clever.

One of my favorite short stories of all time. A review requires at least fifteen words.

One the best of Niven's Early works
This is one of the better of Niven's early works. Niven has that way of taking a premise and putting it on its ear even when he's the first one to do it. How does one wait it out for the years for rescue when one is sure to die? Niven's unique take on that premise becomes one of his better stories. Although written way before Pluto's moon was discovered and of course way before the New Horizon probe revealed Pluto's "heart" so to speak, he does get the absolute cold of Pluto down pat. Strangely enough a beast appears in this story which foretells one of the more bizarre photos to come from New Horizons. On the frozen plains of Pluto's heart one enterprising net viewer noted a large black blob in the crack of the hexagon plates of Pluto's heart. Could Niven have been right? Could this black blob be the result of a superconducting blob of Helium 3 and contaminants creating a living block of super cold liquids able to move about? Maybe, Maybe.... All we have to do is wait it out......

there are two or three places in this title where the audio just drops out completely for a few seconds and then raises back up to the voice in progress.

Thought Provoking
The first book I read by Larry Niven was A World Out of Time. Clearly, all these decades later he is still fascinated by frozen people. :)

Dated, but fun.
I enjoyed this. I probably read this years ago, but it has been so long that I couldn’t have told you how it ended. Or did it?
