Blue Light
Low stock: 1 left
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.

Condition Descriptions
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.
