Probably best considered YA nowadays, 'TLoBF' is fairly lightweight in plot and stakes; there's no great sturm und drang, and the violence is minor (and largely fisticuffs). While the Moruians really aren't terribly alien in physiology or communication, the cultural world-building is excellent: Ursula Le Guin-level, really. And the p-o-v allows for the reader to be informed of the cultural mores as the child narrator is getting reinforced; I actually laughed out loud at an early scene in which Dorn (the kid) is dubious about Diver (the human) not because he's an alien, but because he's a _grown-up_ ! Great stuff.
Seems there are sequels from this New Zealand-born Aussie author. Tracking down these lost gems sounds like a good idea to me.… (meer)
