    Unsexy alien sex mixed with the start of a contemplation on what makes humans human versus what makes aliens alien. Octavia Butler is really tackling something different than I've ever seen here but I'm not sure it all landed for me. What she is describing is difficult to visualize and conceptualize but there was such a huge focus on description that it helped at times but overtook the story at certain points.
