I have to second and third all those who recommend it; I would add that Dawn and the following Xenogenesis trilogy, like her stand-alone novel Kindred, are wonderful entry-points to Butler's work generally.Zahrahttp://zahrawithaz.livejournal.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-199038920161794698.post-91150223586078903872009-11-07T01:02:31.307-05:002009-11-07T01:02:31.307-05:00Kindred was enough for me to love Octavia Butler, ...Kindred was enough for me to love Octavia Butler, but The Lilith's Brood triology sealed the deal!evelyn.n.alfredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08171703688316482928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-199038920161794698.post-51325383732415082792009-11-06T13:00:28.565-05:002009-11-06T13:00:28.565-05:00Yes, this is truly one of my favorite books by Ms....Yes, this is truly one of my favorite books by Ms. Butler.

I will definitely try to read this one soon. The review is great. I'm going to put it on my book recommendation shelf. Then, I won't forget.Teahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04246834295123351186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-199038920161794698.post-30161300736414288602009-11-06T07:11:07.394-05:002009-11-06T07:11:07.394-05:00Ooh.

She's so deep you can't read her in big gulps, yet her characterization is so, <i>so</i> good that you want to get inside the story and be with them.<br /><br />I am still so very grieved that she died. I wanted MORE from her... but I look forward to the others who step up to try and fill her shoes.tanita✿davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671822274852087499noreply@blogger.com
