Title	Midnight Robber
Author	Nalo Hopkinson
ISBN	0446675601
Notes	Mesmerizing and whimsical, this folksy sci-fi coming-of-age story follows, in Carribean vernacular, the trials and adventures of a young girl abducted from her techno-utopian Carribean-colonized homeland by her criminal father to a jungle prison planet in another dimension. I know, it sounds lame, but it's actually quite entertaining, full of interesting creatures and cultures battling for survival in an amazingly detailed ecosystem. Hopkinson gets into her groove with this novel, speaking with a much more confident and consistent voice than in Brown Girl in the Ring.
