Synopsis
In these spellbinding stories, six of today's best-known science fiction authors write about women who must fight to develop their own identities. Luz Falco of Ursula K. Le Guin's new novel The Eye of the Heron follows the only truth she knows, even though it means exile in an endless wilderness. elana Driver of Diana L. Paxson's The Song of N'Sardi-El risks her vital scientific work and the safety of her spaceship's crew when a frightened young orphan is taken on board. Amanda of Joan Vinge's novelette becomes an outcase when she defies her father and offers shelter to a stranger who has fallen out of the sky.
These women live in alien worlds, but their situations are hauntingly familiar, and their stories have the impact of prophecy.
