5.0 out of 5 stars
I simply cound NOT put this book down. So intense!, January 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Adulthood Rites: Xenogenesis (Hardcover)
I enjoy books that make me think. This one did. I have only read 3 of Octavia's books, but they are all dynamite. I rarely read a book through at one sitting, but I raced through all three of the exogenisis series. The many layers of meanings made me think about so many things in the "real" world. These books challenged me in many ways and I am still expanding as a result. Thank you, Octavia!!!!!!!!

Solid book - follows "Dawn", July 5, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Adulthood Rites: Xenogenesis (Hardcover)
Aduulthood Rites is a solid continuation of the story line begun with Dawn. Lilith Iyapo continues life with the Oankali. This story has the feel of struggle concerning racial domination (of the extraterrestrial kind) and how kindness from your rulers can complicate but not necessarily alleviate a situation. Layers upon layers of meaning here. Warning: Octavia Butler is highly addictive. Read one and others are sure to follow.
