The acclaimed graphic novel adaptation of Octavia E. Butler's groundbreaking dystopian novel, Parable of the Sower, is a don't-miss classic that resonates today more than ever.As The Washington Post noted: "A 1993 dystopian novel imagined the world in 2024. It's eerily accurate."

This Hugo Award Winner for Best Graphic Story or Comic is the follow-up to Kindred, a #1 New York Times bestseller.

In this graphic-novel adaptation of Octavia E. Butler's Parable of the Sower by Damian Duffy and John Jennings, the award-winning team behind Kindred: A Graphic Novel Adaptation, the author portrays a searing vision of America's future.

In the year 2024, the country is marred by unattended environmental and economic crises that lead to social chaos. Lauren Olamina, a preacher's daughter living in Los Angeles, is protected from danger by the walls of her gated community. However, in a night of fire and death, what begins as a fight for survival soon leads to something much more: a startling vision of human destiny . . . and the birth of a new faith.

"Alarmingly prescient and relevant. This accessible adaptation is poised to introduce Butler's dystopian tale to a new generation of readers." --Publishers Weekly

"The graphic novel is faithful to Butler, yet still fresh in its world building." --USA Today

Includes an introduction by SFWA Grand Master Nalo Hopkinson

Industry Reviews
"The Parable of the Sower graphic novel... is as faithful an adaptation as you can get. Not only does it hit all the plot points, it perfectly portrays Butler's balancing act in regard to how far society has fallen apart."-- "Kirkus"
