Title: A little too extreme...
Review: A note that I would give this book a 2.5 Stars if that were an option.I first became fascinated by Sheri S. Tepper's writing after reading the surreal _Singer From the Sea._ I first heard about this book mentioned in reviews of Singer. Let me just say that it's not nearly as fascinatingly-written as Singer was, and several scenes of sadomasochism (among other gross items) rather ruined a good deal of it.The plot is good enough but the beginning skips around a lot. There's several subplots and sub-major characters that don't all come together until of the book is over and done with. I did enjoy the reversed society where women are more important than men. That's definitely something of a "new" concept.Over all, read this only if you don't mind occasionally disturbing scenes. If you really want to read a good book by Sheri S. Tepper, I'd suggest _Singer From the Sea._
