A review by laci
Parable of the Talents by Octavia E. Butler

4.0

I liked the first one quite a bit more. Adding an extra star because of the ending, and because the central idea - that space travel is economically so nonviable that you'd need to build a religion around it to make it happen - is interesting.

Oh, and if this came out today, nobody would like it, because they would say she just blatantly wrote about Trump, just changed the name.
