This fast yet thoughtful volume of the Hainish Cycle plays in themes of race and othering. A colony of humans have been stranded without contact for hundreds of years on a planet that is host to a better adapted species of humanoid.

The second of her Hainish novels, like Roccanon's World, this seemed simpler and less developed than her later novels like The Left Hand of Darkness.

A less interesting setting than Rocannon's World, but perhaps more developed characters? A minor but enjoyable novella.
