Change or die. These are the only options available on the planet Jeep. Author: Nicola Griffith Publication Date: April 2002 Paperback. Centuries earlier, a deadly virus shattered the original colony, killing the men and forever altering the few surviving women. Now, generations after the colony has lost touch with the rest of humanity, a company arrives to exploit Jeep-and its forces find themselves fighting for their lives. Terrified of spreading the virus, the company abandons its employees, leaving them afraid and isolated from the natives. In the face of this crisis, anthropologist Marghe Taishan arrives to test a new vaccine. As she risks death to uncover the women's biological secret, she finds that she, too, is changing-and realizes that not only has she found a home on Jeep, but that she alone carries the seeds of its destruction. . . .Ammonite" is an unforgettable novel that questions the very meanings of gender and humanity. As readers share in Marghe's journey through an alien world, they too embark on a parallel journey of fascinating self-exploration. Tags: |

Customer Reviews:Amnesiac (Sunday, 05 April 2009)Rating:  Ammonite is fresh and full of surprises. True to Nicola Griffith style, the story is packed with detail which makes living her fantasy extremely easy. The characters stretches your boundaries on lesbian stereotypes, while making the main characters extremely likeable and gentle, but still warriors. |
