The Bridge Daughter Cycle: Books One to Three Box Set Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 10 ratings

A parallel universe where daughters bear their parents' children.

Young Hanna thinks her thirteenth birthday will be no different than the one before—until her mother explains the facts of life. Hanna is a "bridge daughter" born pregnant with her parents' child. In a few months she will give birth and die, leaving her parents with their true daughter.

So begins
The Bridge Daughter Cycle, a three-part speculative fiction family saga set in an alternate America eerily like our own. Now all three books are available for a reduced price in a single box set collection: Bridge Daughter, Hagar's Mother, and Stranger Son.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Bridge Daughter is the sort of surprising gem in a sea of fairly ordinary you occasionally run across as a reader of contemporary speculative fiction--smart, highly original, and emotionally brutal." - John Blair, author of Bright Angel and American Standard

"Nelson smoothly realizes a provocative alternate present...the thought-provoking story blends action, introspection, and social commentary in a stark but indirect critique of efforts to control female bodies and restrict reproductive rights." -
Publishers Weekly

"In the vein of
The Handmaid's Tale without being derivative of it." - Paul Ridge, Fictive

"This book sucked me in right away...It definitely kept me thinking long after I was done reading." - Sarah Meckler,
GSMC Book Review Podcast

"Hauntingly beautiful...a disturbing view of an alternate America." - K. McCutchen

"Nelson resists genre categories with elegant, stylistic prose...[an] ambitious psychological thriller." - Ramiro Estrada

"Don't start this until your schedule is clear—you won't be able to put it down." - Cynthia Ross, 5-star Amazon review

    I loved how unique these stories were. I originally read the first two but just reread them all together. The only drawback were the grammatical errors. To be born carrying your parents child. It just blows ones mind.

    These books are great for book clubs, or just to read and make you think!
