Octavia Butler was an amazing writer. In this book, she created amazing, well-thought out aliens and writes riveting dialogue. This is the first book of the Xenogensis series. It is about consent and resentment and what it means to be human. The aliens do everything under the belief that they are doing it for the good of humanity. But the humans view them as jailors. It doesn't help that the aliens are hideous to look at. It creates a conflict that makes the book an uncomfortable but profound read.
