What Our Customers Say...

Description

Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

The Book Club Edition of this work, published in the same year as the first edition.

In the unclipped 'Book Club Edition' dust wrapper.

The novel serves as a prequel to Butler's 'Patternist' series, and accounts for the arrival of the Clay Ark disease that leads to the evolution of 'clayarks', the mutants that threaten human survival in the series debut novel, 'Patternmaster' (1876), and 'Survivor' (1978).

Kirkus Reviews praised the novel's "strong, supple narrative with tense action."

Condition
