This is the second book I've read by Octavia Butler and I'm completely impressed by the complexity and intrigue of this story. I was afraid that being sci-fi I would find it difficult to get into the story and that there would be so much to digest that I would miss something. However that is not the case. The story is told with extremely adept writing and Butler definitely took into consideration that she was trying to entertain while saying something. So what is she saying? Tons of stuff! She made astute commentary on racism, sexism, life, the sexes, community, survival, etc. and the list goes on. I recommend it highly. I can't wait to go on to book 2, Adulthood Rites, on Saturday. I'm rooting for you Lilith! You can check out my video review here -
