Viral Evolution: Retrovirus
A novel about a retrovirus strain that changes the world through host integration.
The narrative focuses on the aftermath of a viral discovery made three years before the main timeline. Winters explores how an adapted strain finds a natural host, leading to significant global changes. The story examines the biological process where viruses integrate into the host cell's genome. This integration transforms the virus into a pro-virus, altering the evolutionary path of the species involved. The text does not offer a comprehensive history of virology but rather a fictionalized account of one specific event. It highlights the potential for microscopic agents to drive macroscopic shifts in society and biology.
Published in 2017 by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform, this work sits within the contemporary horror and supernatural fiction market. It reflects a period where scientific accuracy often informs speculative narratives about disease and biological change.
