Breitbart story mentioning my novel The Transhumanist Wager spreading across internet

It looks like the recent Breitbart story on transhumanism that talks a little bit about my novel has gone quite far. Finding it on 50 or so various sites, some radio stations (via Fox Feed Pro), and also tweets about it to around 250,000 people, including from The Medical Futurist and show Savage Nation. Apparently, the conservative media sites are quite concerned with transhumanism:

Print version of Marin Independent Journal review of The Transhumanist Wager by Zoltan Istvan

Last night I picked up the paper copy of the Marin Independent Journal's article about The Transhumanist Wager. It was mostly a full spread in the Lifestyle's section--and quite fun. The photojournalist who took the photos was Frankie Frost.
