Solaris Spring 2020 Lead Title from critically acclaimed author, Adrian J. Walker A startling, emotional, beautiful (and at times funny) book - one that feels like the best sort of science fiction, a book that should be enjoyed widely, a book that speaks of what it is to be human, a parent, and a child. 500 YEARS IN THE FUTURE, EARTH IS A PARADISE... WITHOUT US. The Earth was dying, and only the Erta could save it. Created to be genetically superior, hyper-intelligent and unburdened by the full range of human emotions, they succeeded by removing the cause: humans. Now the Erta are faced with a dilemma--if they reintroduce the rebellious and violent Homo sapiens, all of their work could be undone. They decide to raise one child: a sole human to decide if we should again inherit the Earth. But the quiet and clinical Ima finds that there is more to raising a human than she had expected; and there is more to humanity's history than she has been told. This impressive, surprisingly hopeful take is as rigorous as a thought experiment as it is delightful as pure entertainment. -- Publishers Weekly, starred review Adrian Walker breaks your heart in unexpected ways -- Anne Corlett, author of The Space Between the Stars The Human Son delivers a story that fosters a curious mind and an open heart, questioning and inspiring both without judgement. - SciFiNow 4 Star Review A prevailing mood of ironic charm. - The Times
