At Modern Times, 888 Valencia. http://mtbs.com In the alt-science fiction novel The Colony, Anne Hatley has only one leg and walks with a computerized limb. Hoping to makes easy money, she accepts an invitation from a research colony where scientists want to make her the first patient to generate a new leg. Anne drifts into a relationship with the rakish Nick, carrier of the "suicide gene"; becomes friends with Charles Darwin, who inexplicably pops up for chats when she's distressed, questions what it means to change from one physical form to another and begins to resist the societal pressure to do so.
