| Summary, etc.: | Lilith Iyapo despierta en una nave espacial oankali, la raza alienígena que salvó a la humanidad de la extinción después de que la Tierra quedase devastada a causa de una guerra nuclear. Estos seres han mantenido a Lilith y a otros supervivientes dormidos en animación suspendida durante siglos. Ella será la elegida que guiará a los suyos de vuelta a su propio planeta, ahora dominado por la naturaleza salvaje, para que aprendan a vivir en él y se conviertan en la semilla de una nueva estirpe. Pero todo intercambio tiene una contrapartida: su descendencia no será humana. O no exactamente. |
