About this ebook

What could be more commonplace than grass, or a world covered over all its surface with a wind-whipped ocean of grass? But the planet Grass conceals horrifying secrets within its endless pastures.

And as an incurable plague attacks all inhabited planets but this one, the prairie-like Grass begins to reveal these secrets - and nothing will ever be the same again ...

Ratings and reviews

I read this wonderful book when it first came out and now again in 2022. I'm not sure if i rushed through the book first time or if maturity (old age) has led to a better understanding. The book and characters have much more depth than i remember. Maybe i just needed to be older to understand Marjorie and Rigo. A timeless classic.
