This was the first Science Fiction title I had ever read and it was a good choice. Fantastic introduction to the science fiction genre and a total departure from what I expected.

This book was suggested by Michael Blake, author of "Dances with Wolves", during a talk at the Library of Congress. I'm so glad I followed up. I've now read almost all of Dan O'brien's books, but this is my favorite.
