The third installment in the fascinating story of the women who colonized the planet Maternas, this is the follow-up to Daughters of the Coral Dawn (1984) and Daughters of the Amber Noon (2002). In the telling of this tale, set 50 years after Amber Moon, Forrest captures the ethereal, otherworldly, second generation offspring of the women of Maternas. They are hauntingly different and beautiful. At first they seem distant, aloof, uncaring, but there is another aspect to these women that unfolds in the telling of the tale. The long-term impact of colonization of this planet makes us reflect on our own part in stewarding the Earth.
