Publisher's Synopsis
In 2065, when a Navajo girl tries to prove a breakthrough scientific theory by using advanced technology in her father's laboratory, she instead finds herself transported to an alternate world among an intelligent and hostile species in this science fiction novel. The girl's broad capacities for communication, creativity, and curiosity are vital in her struggle to survive and make sense of her strange new world. Using real science and plausible technology concepts, this life-affirming story is notable among other science fiction works for its strong theme of tolerance and its striking minimalist style.
