After reading K.N.'s first book (Daughter of Dragons), I didn't think I'd find one I'd like better.... but she did it. Human Thing brings out the "fighter" in all of us, and reminds us about what our identity is really all about. Another "can't put it down" read, which I encourage anyone to pick up --> not just sci-fi lovers. You'll love Jillian as much as the rest of us have!

This book was too good to put down, so I have just wiled away a very pleasant afternoon caught up in the adventures of Captain D'Lange. Call her a cyborg or a refab, but she still has guts! The author manages to weave in humour and insight with some pretty cool science. This is definitely worth a read.

For 30 minutes each night, I WAS Captain Jillian D'Lange...heroine,tragic,triumphant,challenged, emotionally charged. Reconstruction could not wipe away her vulnerability...and that, more than anything, is why Jillian is alive in all of us... in some fashion, at some time. Need a light?

Kathleen Nelson has done it again!! "The Human Thing" is an OUTSTANDING follow-up to her book "Daughters of Dragons". "The Human Thing" has wonderfullly worded descriptions complimented by witty dialog. Here's one of my favorite examples: "She squared her shoulders to Jillian (Female Cyborg) like a general who was surrendering her sword but not her commission. In "The Human Thing" - Cyborg's Rock!! The Human Thing is A MOST EXCELLENT ADVENTURE!! (-: Enjoy!
