   A gripping and thoughtful book which deals engagingly with serious
   questions. I couldn't put it down. âThe Rev. Dr. Paul Burgess, author,
   Let The Finder Beware

   It is a truly original work by experienced wordsmiths who never forget
   to engage the reader. âTrudy W. Schuett, editor, Deseert Light Journal

   "This is a fantastic yet completely believable science-fiction book
   with a very modern twist. From philosophical standpoint, there is
   nothing that will spark the debate over interminable longevity like
   Methuselah's Daughter. That's an issue that society needs to tackle
   before science fiction becomes science fact."--Danielle D. Emery, MD,
   Billings MT

   What does it mean to love? How much of what we call love-- and
   experience of love-- is social convention? How much is tied
   intrinsically into the human condition? This excellent, exuberant,
   exhilarating book does its level best to answer the most important
   questions humanity can ask.âAndrew Cory, editor, The Punning Pundit

   âItâs great!!â âAnthony Parisi, bookseller

   "I loved this novel! Not only could I not put it down, to the point of
   neglecting my own writing, but I was deeply intrigued by the heroine,
   and when I finished reading her tale, I almost went into a post-partum
   depression!" âKristina O'Donnelly, author, Lands of the Morning
   series.

   It is my favorite genre, scifi...but it is also deeply and profoundly
   about love. And the human condition and sorrow and pain and loss. And
   hopeâ¦. A year and half ago I read a book called The Time Traveler's
   Wife, also a scifi love story. Although the plotlines are nothing
   alike, the same sense of wonder, of reading something entirely new,
   imbues Methuselah's Daughter. I fully expect Daughter to top the
   charts too. Oh, hope you love it as much as I did. âMatoko Kusanagi,
   author, Quantum Ghosts
