I am biased about Qndre Norton, so thus will be this review.I believe she is te most creative, and yes, spiritual author of fantasy today; modeling oour goals and principals through action, never a lecture. Her sentences are packed , eachword of consequenmce, he plots are a unique combination ofevery scientific and alternative fact or fictionwoven expertly together and every page, inclding the last,casrries on the plot without excuse or apology.For the Jargoopn Pard she has combined anti-discrimination valuies, witchcraft, alternative worlds,ideal human qualities and fully developed characters into a constantly suspensefuland exciting tale. The plot, copied by many movies is ingenious and the twists are unexpected, keeping the suispense and the anticipation high./There is a way which Ms. Norton uses words , how se weaves them into a sentence that not only moves the plot and explains the action bt er syntax is at times poetic. This is a great book-as are most of hers.
One of the best of all the Andre Norton books I have read!

I have the '84 ACE printint of this book and it is still as fresh today as it was the first time I read it. This is one of the reasons Ms. Norton is such a highly regarded author of this genre. If you haven't read this one, try an find one. A very enjoyable read. She brings Kethan and Car Do Prawn alive!
