The best of the best; FINALLY on Audible!

I dont know how anyone can give a better review than Marion Zimmer Bradley in the intro.
I've read the book many times since it came out and want to say it is fresh in a way that seems impossible for a book written in 1975. It is unlike anything else I've ever read. I was worried that the narrator would have difficulty correctly imparting the "other"ness of the woman but was impressed with the dynamic flexibility she conveyed as the woman's experiences went from nothing to hubris to...well...read it. you wont be disappointed.
