Why has Human natural advancement nearly flatlined? Species around Earth are evolving within generations, but Human genetics essentially remain the same.
An Earth mission on Mars takes a surprising turn, allowing one alien race's (Arriziyans) to intercept a message from Arriziyan enemy forces (Darrkriel). At first glance Humanity is no prize to the Arriziyans; at second glance Humanity might be a Darrkriel secret.

"Gene Traffickers: Conquerors of Worlds", by Danny Farrar, is a book I enjoyed reading. It's a hard to describe book because it doesn't really remind me of any other sci-fi books. I think the closest would be John Varley's books.Like those books, Gene Traffickers features characters in space, with a strong focus on characters and exploring the setting and world as much as the external plot--although Gene Traffickers does have a good, interesting external plot. The Darrkriel, the Arriziyan's enemies. Who are they, what do they want, how are they connected with humans? And how are the Arriziyans involved with them?
I think that part is well done--the curiosity about them and the Arriziyan's situation is gradually teased throughout the book, with new pieces of information coming into place and more questions arising. It's very well paced in that regard. That is, after the first quarter or so of the book, which is a bit slow. It's only after that that the book turns into a page turner. If that first quarter had been condensed I feel like the book would have been stronger.
The book really does change drastically after that, with a really neat, immersive feel. You seem to get a feel for what it really would be like if you were in space, trying to understand and work with an alien culture. Some of the differences that came up were really interesting, and just really cool to see and think about.
As far as characterization, most of the main characters seem well-written enough. Some side characters aren't very fleshed out, but they didn't especially need to be. Once the story was past that slow first quarter, the characters were fleshed out very smoothly, with actions and scenes showing who they are inside, very naturally and seamlessly. Jon, for instance, was a character that was largely absent from the first part of the book, but turned out to be one of the stronger/developed side characters. (He is one of my favorites.)
Slow start aside, my only other issue with the book was the ending. The ending scenes/actions had lots of very exciting, suspenseful parts. But where the book ended off didn't feel like an ending. It felt like the chapter right before the ending chapter. That is, that it was the perfect set up for the final, climactic scene of the book. But that was put off for the next book (if there is a next book/sequel).
I feel like that climactic scene could have been written, and the next book's conflict teased out of it (the Darrkriel are obviously a huge problem, the final scene/fight wouldn't have solved that overall problem) and then I could have really raved about this story. But while I still feel that this book is good and can be very enjoyable, I feel like the lack of that final scene and the slow beginning might make some people not like it.
With those caveats, I still advise giving it a read, especially for people that enjoy worldbuilding, details of space exploration and human-alien interactions. A lot of thought was put into the technology and the different alien cultures, and the humans' involvement.

Gene Traffickers Conquerors of Worlds eBook Danny Farrar Reviews
Interesting take on culture conflict and finding out how little you actually know about the universe. A good read.
Interesting concept but the execution needs work. Typos and grammatical errors throughout make it tough to get lost in the story. The pacing is thrown off by pointless discussions and sidebars that don't advance the story.
All this can be fixed, so I'm calling it a good first draft.
I liked this book, it was a bit slow at times, and I did notice some grammatical errors, but this could be fixed.
I am not always a huge fan of sci-fi, so I was thankful to have a list of characters so I could look back and remind myself.
The plot keeps you interested throughout most of the book, and new information is added to keep having you ask more questions. The book is descriptive and makes you think what it would be like to live in space. Main characters were well developed. The beginning is a little slow to unravel, but after that I thought it was suspenseful and interesting.
With those caveats, I still advise giving it a read, especially for people that enjoy worldbuilding, details of space exploration and human-alien interactions. A lot of thought was put into the technology and the different alien cultures, and the humans' involvement.
