Well it's a Sheri Tepper novel to be sure, not my favorite however. Took me a while to get into this one - the future America is so odd that I was 100 pages into the book before I could really wrap my head around it. Technology is magic to the regime and is to be banned, except that magic spells really do work. The plot moves along rather leisurely, setting up Disme's story along with POV from several others. I didn't really care for how she set up the ending - the bad guys are defeated, yes, but the whole rationale behind the meteor...eh. Disme is likeable, the bad guys are over the top horrible, and in the middle are some who are good but sometimes make mistakes.
