"Winner of the Hugo award, it tells an old story in a new way...The plot is originally handled...The characters are well drawn...Ms. Le Guin has written a book well on its way to becoming a classic in its field." --The Jackson Tennessee Sun "A fantasy of the future that might horridly come true; a parable from a skilled writer that speaks to ourselves now." --The Oregon Journal "Like all great writers of fiction, Ursula K. Le Guin creates imaginary worlds that restore us, hearts eased, to our own." --The Boston Globe "Queen of the realm of fantasy." --Washington Post
