Serpent Catch [Mass Market Paperback]

Dave Wolverton (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Chosen for an expedition into the hostile Kingdom of Crael, the half-breed Tull faces his greatest challenge as he seeks to reconcile his human and Neanderthal halves in a world where he has no real place. Wolverton sets this fantasy-like quest on a distant moon where genetic engineering has re-created extinct and mythological species, and where humans enslave their Neanderthal creations to increase their own power. This excellent blend of sf and fantasy belongs in most libraries.

I have had this book on my bookshelf for years, and occasionally go back to it to re-read. It is a well written fantasy full of characters with depth to them. It portrays Neanderthals in a new and interesting way. It runs the gammut of human emotions and motivations. I recommend this book to all.
