Journey To Diir is a terrific science fiction love story. Not a traditional romance -- boy meets girl -- but the engaging story of one woman's struggle to bring the gift of humanity from this time period into the very humanly sterile 27th century with the assistance of the three men who love her and become her family.  Girl meets boys -- with a theme which embodies the journey of human evolution.

Lynn Sterling's 346 page book makes me wish that we could take that journey now. She shows how hard it will be but also what the rewards are for those who can truly grow up into more than we are now as humans -- who can learn to love without jealousy and live with passion.  I can't wait for the next two book in the series to see where the writer takes us.
