The third and final Xenogenesis book. This time it tells the story of Jodahs, Lilith's first Ooloi child and its growth into its role including mates and metamorphosis.

- It was fascinating learning about the world Butler has created through Ooloi eyes and how different Jodahs saw things from Lilith and Akin. 

- I liked how the narrative handles the humans involved and how the majority of them were not white or English speaking. As with most of the books, they are diverse and provoke thought about human power structures.

- Though the series ended well, I would have liked to have spent more time in the final setting and learn what was to happen there. I wish Butler had written more in this series as I have loved learning about the Oankali and this new dystopian world.

A very enjoyable and rewarding series, especially for those who enjoy alien encounters with humans, visions of a future with both alien and human people living together and the problems encountered from the different needs of different beings.
