Review

Former biologist Julie Czerneda's science fiction has received international acclaim, awards, and best selling status. Her first novel, A Thousand Words for Stranger, was published in 1997 by DAW Books, starting her Trade Pact Trilogy. Her second novel, Aurora Award Finalist Beholder's Eye, was published by DAW in 1998, becoming the first in her Web Shifters series. In the Company of Others, a standalone sf novel published in 2001, was a finalist for the Philip K. Dick Award for Distinguished Science Fiction and winner of the Canadian Prix Aurora Award and RT Reviewer's Choice Award. Her newest novel, Migration, published in May 2005, is the second novel in her Species Imperative trilogy. Julie is the editor of the Tales from the Wonder Zone anthology from Fitzhenry and Whiteside, and of the DAW anthology: Space Inc. DAW has purchased two new science fiction novels from Julie, a duology entitled Reunification, to be published after her two prequels to The Trade Pact Universe, entitled The Stratification: Books I & 2 and the final volume of the Species Imperative trilogy.
