About
A stunning collection of chilling fiction, including Hugo and Nebula Award winning stories, from the 'grand dame' of science fiction, whose 'Parable of the Sower' has now sold over 100,000 copies. In a field dominated by white male authors, Octavia E Butler's perspectives on the sci-fi genre is certainly unique.
