- Deciding on June title*
Author Octavia E. Butler won multiple Hugo and Nebula Awards throughout her lifetime, and she became the first science fiction author to receive a MacArthur Genius Grant in 1995. PATTERNMASTER was her first novel.
"The combined mind-force of a telepathic race, Patternist thoughts can destroy, heal, rule. For the strongest mind commands the entire pattern and all within. Now the son of the Patternmaster craves this ultimate power, He has murdered or enslaved every threat to his ambition--except one. In the wild, mutant-infested hills, a young apprentice must be hunted down and destroyed because he is the tyrant's equal... and the Patternmaster's other son."
PATTERNMASTER is available for purchase through WritersBlockBookstore.com (USPS ship-to-home, curbside pickup, or ebook download through My Must Reads). If you have any questions about how to obtain the book, please comment on the event or DM host Shelby Bouck.
*Feel free to suggest a book from any genre for June! It should be published for an adult or young adult audience and be one continuous work, i.e. not a collection of short stories, essays, or poems.
