I'm a big fan of this book: it's one of my favorites. I first read the Hugo-nominated novella in an anthology and got thoroughly sucked into Candy's story. It might take a little while to get used to the shorthand style of the text, but I enjoyed it enough that I was very pleased to find the full novel a few years later..and I'd love to see the sequel, but it isn't out in book form yet. Any Analog subscribers out there who'd let me borrow their copies of July through October 2008?

Meanwhile, I haven't decided what to do with this extra copy yet.

Here's another copy on my shelf.

I'm hoping this old favorite will find a good home: I'm sending it out by way of laevina's Sci-Fi, Fantasy, & Horror bookbox. Released for my D for December challenge.

This book was set free to find a new reader; I'm so glad you've found it!

Taking this book out of laevina's Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Horror Bookbox.

This one looks good, especially since it's one of hyphen8's favorites! I don't read a LOT of science fiction, but I like quality stuff like Douglas Adams, Christopher Moore. Thanks for sharing!

Book Description:

This is the saga of Candy Smith-Foster, a brilliant, witty girl on the verge of womanhood, survivor of a bionuclear war that destroyed most of humanity, first of a new stage in human evolution: Homo post hominen. This is her turbulent odyssey across a scarred America seeking others of her kind--and a new future for the people of Earth. This is a remarkable novel, a towering tale of imagination that you will never forget.

I decided not to read this one because my TBR books are taking over the house. LOL
