Winner of the Kurd Lasswitz Science Fiction Prize, The Abolition of Species, publishing April 24, has received advance praise from Booklist:

“In his first novel to be translated into English, [Dietmar] Dath uses gender and evolution as underpinning motivations, with some interesting results. This is a dense historical narrative, with an arc of centuries, but it is worth the effort. The long-lived characters provide a slow-growing framework to a story that ultimately leads to a promising, open-ended conclusion.” — Regina Schroeder
