MOODY, AMBIENT, A REFRESHING WORK OF SCIENCE FICTION!
THOUGHT PROVOKING...
TIMELY, INCREDIBLY POIGNANT, ATMOSPHERIC! Dream of us, Kira, they sang, as they had sung to her for many years.
I will, she thought. ...for dreaming's sake. They found her walking alone, lost in the deteriorating ruins of an ancient city. Her name was Kira Lightfoot. And when they searched for the child's people and found no clue that would lead them to the truth about her origins, they adopted her as their first alien ward. In Daughter, Koppisch's breakout futuristic tale, a lost child brings out the best and worst of human nature and suggests that racism and fear of the 'other' are traits common to all societies, even alien ones more advanced than our own. This crisply written tale of raw human experience will make you question humanity's ability to rise above its frailty and innate flaws and question whether it is any better elsewhere in the universe.
