    The Parable series by her get more word-of-mouth, but the series that really stayed with me was her Xenogenesis series. Like the Parable books, it has the Survival as Hero archetype going on, but in this case it’s about a species of aliens who saves the last remnants of humans after they destroy themselves and earth, and follows a woman who is seen a “collaborating” with them.

    Semi-related, I loved that that spot on Mars where one of the rovers landed was named after her. I wasn’t expecting that. I just wish she hadn’t died so prematurely and was alive to see it.
