No new author has burst upon the scene with such instant success as Elizabeth Moon. Each of her first three novels, Sheepfarmer's Daughter, Divided Allegiance and Oath of Gold , have met with a reader response best described as "splendid." We now offer a collection of this author's shorter work that prove that while she is without question the fantasy discovery of a decade, she is also--as with such diverse talents as Poul Anderson, Gordon R. Dickson, and Larry Niven--equally a master of science fiction. Contains a story set in the world of Paksenarrion.
Contents: Introduction -- ABC's in zero-G -- A delicate adjustment -- If nudity offends you -- Too wet to plow -- Gut feelings -- Gravesite revisited -- Just another day at the weather service -- The generic rejuvenation of Milo Ardry -- New world symphony -- Those who walk in darkness.
