The wind - sculptor of stone, chiseler of earth. As gentle as a lover's caress or a vengeful wraith smiting the land - it is the eternal shaper of worlds and events. A chameleon, it shifts moods like the desert sands, its voice a gentle lullaby, a scream of rage, an eerie dirge, a whispered secret. Like the wind, the female spirit has sculpted the face of time. Girl, woman, matron ... be it a personal triumph or global victory, she has etched her name in stone. The essence of womanhood speaks from a collection of fifteen science fiction stories welcoming the reader into the diverse female universe.

This review is from: Sisters of the Wind (Paperback)
Reviewed by Abbie G. Yandle for Reader Views (1/07)
This collection of short stories takes the reader into the depths and reaches of the imagination through the eyes of strong female characters. These characters face the same challenges that most women face. Each engages the reader. Sometimes the challenges are resolved, sometimes not. Many of these stories left me wanting more! Divorce, kidnapping, and a custody battle on a resort planet grab any mother's attention in "Duel of Hearts." A society's rites of passage torment young Janaar in "Debutante." The overwhelming desire to keep her youthful appearance causes Beth to lose her best friend, as she falls into a sinister conspiracy in "New Woman." In "The Cull," Seladon faces her own conscience. She decides what she is doing is wrong. Acting against orders, she makes a choice that may end her life. An old friend comes to her rescue, giving her a second chance. This is a great book when reading time is limited. Who doesn't need to escape into the fantasy world of other's troubles from time to time? The female spirit is portrayed well through these literary snapshots. I'll be sharing my copy of "Sisters of the Wind" with my daughter! I'm certain she will enjoy it as I have. Book received free of charge.
