Description
On the enigmatic world of Grass, an aristocratic human society thrives amid sweeping plains, elaborate rituals, and the thrill of the hunt, seemingly untouched by a plague ravaging the galaxy. When an investigation brings outsiders to the planet, its elegant surface begins to reveal unsettling signs of an older, nonhuman civilization and secrets humanity was never meant to uncover. Blending science fiction, ecological mystery, and incisive social commentary, the novel explores colonialism, privilege, faith, and humanity’s fraught relationship with the natural world. Its richly imagined setting and morally complex characters make it a landmark work of thought-provoking speculative fiction.
