Description
Akin, the first of his kind, is a young man with extraordinary gifts. His family lives on Earth, but not in complete peace. The Oankali, who saved humanity years ago, have created a new race of children with extraordinary abilities. But there are those who resist the Oankali and the salvation they offer.
Akin must reconcile his own heritage in a world already torn in two. He understands the desire to fight for the independence of humanity, but he also fears that, if left alone, humanity will destroy itself again. When he is stolen from his family, he faces an impossible choice.
This thought-provoking novel explores far-reaching issues of power, identity, and what it means to be human. Octavia E. Butler's evocative prose delines the painful paradoxes of metamorphosis with compelling precision.
