Hard to follow plot.

Had trouble following plot. Didn't finish book.

Is biology destiny?

Aside from the turn-on I got even at an early age from the idea of a matriarchical world, there is also the story of how two very different societies interact when one of them is attempting to conquer the other. In the alien world the female holds the power and authority and sex is a painful experience for the male, at least his first time. In the human world it is the opposite. And that is the thing that may haunt as you read this. How much of a society is based on the act of sex itself? Is potential pain in sex equal needing to take the submissive role? Anne Bishop's "Black Jewels Trilogy" would say no. By Jayge Carr's books suggests regardless of logic, those in power and authority will find some way to justify it.

Feminist Science Fiction--Role Reversal

Delyafam is a water world, ruled by females. The Kimassu Lady has risen far in her society, despite her odd coloration. Through a male Terran, captured after violating the Inner Holy, she discovers that the Terrans, considered little more than pests by the Council, have plans to wipe out her people and take the planet for themselves. The more time she spends with the Terran, the more she realizes that her people have been shortchanging the males of her species. Ultimately, she must act to save her world from the Terran threat, and at the same time create equality between the sexes.

A Classic Aquatic Adventure

The Kimmasu Lady of the House of Morningstar acts as the "terran-expert" judge on her matriarchal ruled world. During her duties, she must fend off the attentions of a terran Admiral fascinated with her unqiue "terran-like" coloring and her exceedingly long life span, unknowing that all females of her species are extremely long lived. But the admiral has a hidden agenda-to locate a human spy who has vital information on how to capture and colonize Kimmasu's planet. Kimmasu finds that she must keep the spy out of the Admiral's hands at all costs. She also realizes she must act inhonorably to save her world when honor is all.This story should be republished!!!
