In this lush interplanetary tale, Novic is an immortal Sayneth priest who flouts the conventions of a matriarchal society by choosing a name for his child. This act initiates chaos that splits the boy in two, unleashing a Jekyll-and-Hyde child upon the universe. Named T-Mo by his mother and Odysseus by his father, the story spans the boy's lifetime a from his early years with his mother Silhouette on planet Grovea to his travels to Earth where he meets and marries Salem, and together they bear a hybrid named Myra. The story unfolds through the eyes of these three distinctive women: Silhouette, Salem and Myra. As they confront their fears and navigate the treacherous paths to love and accept T-Mo/Odysseus and themselves, the darkness in Odysseus urges them to unbearable choices that threaten their very existence.Publishers Weekly - "Bacon explores a four-generation alien family saga in this gleeful, wacky debut." - Full ReviewForeword Reviews - "Claiming T-Mo is literate, imaginative, and provocative-a strong, even unforgettable, science fiction debut."Aurealis Magazine, Megan Kelly - "Bacon enthralls readers with an innovative narrative that extols the potency of using poetic language in fiction." - Full Review
