Shortlisted for the Locus Award for Best Science Fiction Novel (1984) and the Prometheus Award (1984).

It was a place on Darkover where the Order of the Renunciates dwelled - women as Free Amazons, who had renounced all subservience to men. And who sought for total equality in all spheres of society. To Thendara House came the Terran Magda in exchange for the Free Amazon Jaella, who had become the wife of an Earthman and had entered the Terran enclave. The cross-currents of these two cultures - one male-dominated, one egalitarian, brings into focus all the deepest questions of love and marriage, of male and female, of justice and injustice.
