"This is a biography of the famed sci-fi writer, Estelle Butler. It is intended for young teens all the way up to adults. The book is special because it is a biography written as a collection of poems and text, sprinkled with quotes by Butler and filled with imagery and figurative language. A truly unique style of biography writing could not be more fitting for Butler!" - Caroline on Star Child: A Biographical Constellation of Octavia Estelle Butler by Ibi Zoboi.

"This whirlwind action-adventure dives deep into corporate influence, poverty, climate change, and the ethics of water rights, while never losing the focus on its taut plot, well thought out characters and devastatingly portrayed setting. Brilliant!" - Catherine on The Water Knife by Paolo Bacigalupi.
