Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
In Ammonite, the 1994 James Tiptree Jr. Award winner, the attempts to colonize the planet Jeep have uncovered a selective virus that kills all men and all but a few women. The remaining women undergo changes that enable them to communicate with one another and the planet itself, and give to birth to healthy, genetically diverse children. Marguerite Angelica Taishan is an anthropologist who realizes this phenomena and makes the decision to give herself up to the planet to uncover its mysteries.

The New York Times Book Review, Gerald Jonas
Pays homage to Ursula K. Le Guin Left Hand of Darkness without inviting invidious comparisons.
