The complete Patternist series—the acclaimed science fiction epic of
a world transformed by a secret race of telepaths and their
devastating rise to power. In the late seventeenth century, two
immortals meet in an African forest. Anyanwu is a healer, a
three-hundred-year-old woman who uses her wisdom to help those around
her. The other is Doro, a malevolent despot who has mastered the power
of stealing the bodies of others when his wears out. Together they
will change the world. Over the next three centuries, Doro mounts a
colossal selective breeding project, attempting to create a master
race of telepaths. He succeeds beyond his wildest dreams, splitting
the human race down the middle and establishing a new world order
dominated by the most manipulative minds on Earth. In these four
novels, award-winning author Octavia E. Butler tells the classic story
that began her legendary career: a mythic tale of the transformation
of civilization. This ebook features an illustrated biography of
Octavia E. Butler including rare images from the author’s estate.
