Though less well-known than Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, or Robert A. Heinlein, Theodore Sturgeon (1918-1985) is even more important to the development of literary and humanistic science fiction. He received the Hugo, Nebula, and International Fantasy Awards, and the World Fantasy Life Achievement Award. The Dreaming Jewels (1950) was his first novel. --Cynthia Ward
Performing alongside the fire-eaters, snakemen, and "little people", Horty is accepted. But he is not safe. For among the freaks is a man who knows that Junky is not a normal doll and that Horty is not a normal boy -- and he knows why Horty's fingers have mysteriously grown back. Using this knowledge he will threaten not only the life of the boy, but the lives of the outcasts who provided the boy with a place to call home. Vividly drawn, expertly plotted, The Dreaming Jewels is a Sturgeon masterpiece.
