On her far-reaching, perilous trip of discovery, Maia will undergo hardship and hunger, imprisonment and loneliness, bloody battles with pirates and separation from her twin. And along the way, she will meet a traveller who have come an unimaginable distance--and who threatens the sensitive balance of the Stratoins' carefully retained, perfect modern culture.Both exciting and insightful, Glory Season is a major book, a transcendent saga of the individual spirit.
