A lifetime in the Labor Corps-or colonize a new world. For Jamie and Jose, not much of a choice. But Praxis wouldn't be easy. To survive there, you had to depend on each other. And that requires honesty that few possess. Praxis is a bold experiment in society building, a monosexual colony, with no promises of survival and no return trip. But it's got potential. You just have to build a new civilization-on the other side of the universe.
"A wonderfully realized and self-contained story about sexual ambivalence (amongst many other things) that nevertheless leaves you hoping Gerrold's next SF tale picks up where this one leaves off."
Nigel Suckling, Hugo-winning author"Praxis is one of the very few books I've read where the premise of the society/world/universe is so interesting that it engages regardless of the plot. And the plot is a novel and unusual possible human situation, driven by the constraints of what may well come to pass, where traditional space opera is dragged screaming and kicking into a future with brand-new conventions. What Praxis is really (as is all the best SF), is the intro for a never-ending epic. But the evocative set-up is what I look for in speculative literature-and this book serves as a magnificent springboard for the reader's imagination."
F. J. Bergmann, SFPA Grand Master & editor"The thought-provoking story of two partners set to embark on a one-way trip to a planet that's all men - a literary exploration of human relationships in a brutal society seeking to colonize the universe."
Dr. Daniel Pomarede, co-discoverer of the Laniakea Supercluster, the South Pole Wall & the Dipole Repeller
"Master of the imagination David Gerrold does it again, Praxis is a story of letting go, communication, and acceptance. For men to find a new way they must first redefine manhood, break from an oppressive society, and together learn what it means to become a new type of human."
- Jean-Paul L. Garnier, editor of Star*Line & Simultaneous Times
