From AudioFile
This captivating science fiction novel is brought to life in a vivid and memorable reading by one of its authors. Who better to understand this complex work, both in its utter humanity and the complicated setting in which it exists? Spider Robinson reads with vigor and honesty, relating his tale of the unbelievable and fantastic in the most earnest of performances. The imaginative story focuses on Shara Drummond, a dancer who may save the human race with her talent. Spider's portrayal of Drummond doesn't differ much from the tone he employs for the story's omniscient narrator, but there's a slight shift in tone that gives credibility to the characters. A truly vivid tale! L.B. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Larry Kresek (illustrator). 1st Edition. "First printing" on its copyright page, so a first edition. This book is in very good+ condition, marred only by some light wear on base of spine, a thin line of sun toning along top edge of boards, slight lean, and what appears to be very light remainder spray on bottom of text block. Its binding is sound. Covers are unmarked and otherwise unworn. Pages are unworn and otherwise unmarked. Its dust jacket, now protected by a removable mylar cover, is also in very good+ condition: whole, bright and unmarked, marred only by a 1/4" clear tape repair of a closed tear on base of spine, a crease across the front bottom corner, and a trace of wear at top of spine. I will ship this book in a moisture proof zip-loc bag, padded in bubble wrap, inside a sturdy box to assure it reaches its new owner in the same condition as my description. Seller Inventory # 002805
