Science Fiction
Child of the Earth and stars, Jodahs can shapeshift, heal
the maimed, cure cancer, create contagion with every breath,
or mutate the ground with a touch. Jodahs is an ooloi, a
being beyond gender, born with the alien Oankali power to
mix pure DNA within its body. But the child is also the
first ooloi born to a human mother, and its destiny is
unknown. The future of both humans and Oankali rests in one
young being's successful metamorphosis into adulthood. Jodahs can become a mad, living plague -- or a bridge of
peace. Its challenge is to reconcile its galactic heritage
of gene trading with the rage of a people facing a
terrifying dilemma. For human children will inherit the
universe only if they lose all that which makes them human.
