Koontz, Dean R. A DARKNESS IN MY SOUL. London: Dennis Dobson, [1979]. Octavo, boards. First British (and first hardcover) edition. A genetically engineered creature created by the machines of the Artificial Creation laboratory attains godlike power and creates a peaceful utopian Earth -- which is boring -- so he reintroduces religion, then war. The novel is reminiscent of Jerome Bixby's classic story "It's a Good Life." A fine copy in nearly fine dust jacket with tanning to upper edges of jacket and spine panel. (#175915).
