Imago is the third book of a brilliant trilogy that extends and applies human racism, colonialism, and our core “contradiction”—intelligence and hierarchy—to humanity itself, leaving readers pondering questions about personal, cultural, and social heritage and identity.
Unlike most science-fiction, the Lilith’s Brood collection relies heavily on inter-species dialog, reflection, sexuality, and emotions to drive a compelling, classic tale.
