The Tyger

Description
This volume is a submission for the Royal Road 'Writathon', April–May 2023.
I got the idea while writing another novel. This challenge gives me the excuse to write it out and see if I really have a story.
Behold, a cautionary tale of our technology. No, not robots and AI this time, but the creatures of flesh and blood that we will eventually create.
My apologies to the prophet and poet William Blake (1757-1827). I used the title and the stanzas from his 1794 poem,The Tyger, as the novel title and for the chapter titles, as I found them fitting.
