Blurb: 
MacArthur Foundation grant recipient Octavia E. Butler"s award-winning novels have earned her an acclaimed place in women"s fiction, African-American literature, and speculative fiction. WILD SEED is the mythic exploration of a gender struggle that transcends continents and ages. For centuries Anyanwu has created: birthed tribes, healed with her kisses, transformed into anything she wills herself to be. For millenia Doro has possessed: taken bodies as his own, killed with his whim, manipulated others to build a private race of witches and seers. And the power of their meeting, of Anyanwu"s nurture and passion, of Doro"s force and ambition, of their immortal love and hatred, will burn a Pattern into the very destiny of the world.
