Both "Blood Music" and "Forge of God" were enjoyable reads. "Blood Music" is a very chilling tale of biology gone wrong. "Forge of God" is just as chilling in an end-of-the-world tale--of which I am a sucker for (my all-time favorite is "Lucifer's Hammer" by Niven and Pournelle). Its sequel, "Anvil of the Stars" I found harder to read, but the ending satisfied me.
