Nebula Award: Best Novel nominee.

Praised for PRIMARY INVERSION and CATCH THE LIGHTNING, the first two novels in her Skolian empire saga, Catherine Asaro now tells the story of a seasoned fighter pilot, whose disabled spacecraft crash-lands on a proscribed world ruled by women. It takes him years of pain and pleasure, love and learning, to escape, for this world changes him and so changes the future of the galactic empire.
