Benita Alvarez-Shipton faces an unorthodox midlife crisis when alien visitors choose her as their liaison with Earth's authorities and provide her with the means to take her destiny into her own hands in the process. The author of Six Moon Dance demonstrates her limitless ability to extract wonder and ingenuity from the lives of ordinary people faced with extraordinary situations. Tepper's talent for creating believable human and alien characters lends power and credibility to her work and makes her a convincing portrayer of sociologically oriented sf. Recommended for most sf collections. Copyright 2000 Cahners Business Information.
