WILD SEED
by Octavia E. Butler

New York: Warner Books, 2001, 307 pages.  Very good trade paperback.  Book is embossed with previous owner's name on title page and one of the back pages.  Handwritten date on title page.  Otherwise book is clean and unmarked.  No reading crease to spine.  Binding is square and tight--feels unread.

First title in the Patternist Series.
