This is quite a good read, if a bit on the erotic side. Naamah is a godess whose followers find love with either gender. Moirin, the heroine of this novel, has more than one secret. She can hide between the real and the shadow world, a technique she knows as the "twilight." The only situation in which the technique doesn't work is when someone is looking directly at her. In addition, she can encourage plants to grow. Moirin leaves her mother, the cave and forest where she grew up to seek her destiny. Her adventures range wide and far as she encounters a rather sophisticated society in which she finds love with the queen to a nation across the ocean where she works to rescue a beautiful princess occupied by a dragon and falls in love with a stick fighter who serves the master who is teaching her how to breathe and follow the "way." Carey does a nice job of putting a rather lengthy story together, yet leaving the ending open for another book to follow.
