Blurb: “ACE SCIENCE FICTION SPECIALS have brought into paperback such classics as THE LEFT HAND OF DARKNESS; PICNIC ON PARADISE, RITE OF PASSAGE, THE JAGGED ORBIT and A WIZARD OF EARTHSEA. This tradition of selecting exceptional works by well-established masters, as well as by talented newcomers to the SF world, is being maintained by a numbered series of novels making their paperback debut. These works, chosen for their high quality, are the classics of the future.
Thomas Burnett Swann is a true craftsman with a well-earned international reputation for his mystic, classical fantasies. Theodore Sturgeon, writing for the New York Times Book Review, said of him: "He writes blissfully and beautifully separated from trend and fashion; he writes his own 7 golden thing his own way."
The author considers LADY OF THE BEES, a lyric retelling of the legend of Romulus and Remus, to be the best book he has ever written.”
