Blood Child, and Other Stories by Octavia E. Butler

1.0

Blood child - the main story that this collection surrounds. It's a interesting idea a communion between aliens and humans with aliens using us as their parasitic pregnancy cattle WILLINGLY. because we are refuges who fled to their planet. But the writing is poor and sloppy. It's amateurish in my opinion. Time and time again the writing pulled me out and I only read it to find out how she ended it. The Futher I went in the more sloppy the writing became. It seems as though this is a collection of rushed and unedited stories.
