Ebook description

An entomologist seeking answers as to how ants communicate goes to Namibia searching of her long-lost mentor. She finds the answers, but is faced with a question she cannot answer. It's a story of one person’s hunt for the truth. An ‘old school’ work of science fiction, it questions our homocentric view of the universe and our place in it.

Review by: Ivan Turner on Feb. 26, 2010 :
I enjoyed Anthithesis. I felt the premise was very interesting (I love stories about ants) although I did think that the main character was a bit flat. The only other criticism I had with the book is that I didn't think the author spent enough time resolving the main plot thread. It was kind of like watching one of those television shows that spends 40 minutes building and 5 minutes resolving.

Despite all criticism, though, antithesis is a good story with a valuable theme. There is a nice side-plot that is just as dramatically interesting as the main plot. The story flows nicely and I would definitely recommend it to anyone, like me, who likes stories about ants.
