Book Reviews of Wild Seed
Book Review: ...wow.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is something I don't say often...but I loved this book. Unabashedly loved it. There's nothing I didn't like about it. The writing was amazing. That wonderful type of writing that disappears as you read it and leaves nothing but the picture inside the words. The two main characters -- Doro and Anyanwu -- were fully realized and unbelievably sympathetic. I really cared about them. Few authors can manage it to the extent Butler has. This was the first book I've ever read by her, but it won't be the last. If she had only written this one book, I could easily call her one of my favorite writers.
