Unto the Third Generation — Rosemary Mild; Larry Mild

     This exciting new science fiction tale will chill you to the core. Two young people, unaware of each other's existence, volunteer to become cryonauts -- physically frozen in a life-suspension experiment. Leonard Tall-Chief, a high-steel worker, and Francine Mapleton, a waitress, postpone their destinies for untold generations.
     The year 2039 would be unremarkable except for two significant events.
     The first event marks a giant breakthrough for the wellbeing of all mankind. For once, no man, woman, or child should go needlessly hungry ever again. No one, ever again, should secretly profit from feeding the less fortunate. Everyone might benefit from partaking of this discovery. But should they?
     The second event poses a threat to the continued existence of all mankind -- a disease that tortures and teases and ultimately leaves its victims lifeless. It moves ever so slowly, spreading its fire-like fevers over land and sea. It will take three generations before the impact of these two events clash. And when they do, the very lives of Leonard and Francine will be at stake.
