Born into Light
by Paul Samuel Jacobs[from inside flaps] "On a quiet night in a sleepy New England town, young Roger Westwood saw the sky ripped apart by light. Out of the light ran a living form--a young boy, wild as a wolf. Roger watched as his mother and older sister took the child in. Dr. Jensen said he would never be more than an imbecile, a wild child. But Mother named the creature Ben, and treated it as one of her own. From the start, Ben proved he was no imbecile. Quickly, he changed from a beast to a civilized youth. Soon he outstripped even the teacher at school. And when Roger's mother adopted Nell, another wild child, Ben showed his extraordinary powers of strength and of healing. Roger knew Ben and Nell were not of this world--the strange, unformed creature in the pond had proved that. But neither Roger nor Ben himself could explain what Ben's mission on Earth was; why old age was overtaking him; or what an overreaching effect he and his kind would have on this world's future. With this riveting first novel, Paul Samuel Jacobs takes his place as a storyteller in the tradition of H.G. Wells and Robert Louis Stevenson. Born into Light is science fiction that captures the imagination and challenges our perception of the world."
