Quick Overview

The human race has just begun. In the Bay Area in the mid-1960s, several people are struck by a cosmic blue light that "quickens" their DNA, causing them instantaneously to evolve far beyond the present state of the human race. They become the full actualization of humankind, with strengths, understandings, and communication abilities that exceed our imagining.

Blue Light is the story of this quickening, and the conflict between these precursors of a new race of humans and the old breed they seem destined to supplant. Unfolding from the point of view of Chance, a half-black, half-white lost soul who becomes a follower of the "blues", the novel traces battles among those struck by the light (including one who becomes the living embodiment of Death) and their quest to bring their message of evolution and higher purpose to the rest of the world.

Blue Light explores some of the questions about race, identity, and humanity that are the hallmark of Mosley's other bestselling fiction, but his mind-stretching new approach will take his readers to a fascinating place they've never traveled.

Product Description

In a brilliant departure for Walter Mosley, author of the bestselling Easy Rawlins mystery series, "Blue Light" is a speculative novel about good and evil, the nature of humanity, and the ultimate purpose and fate of the human race.
