| Pros |
Wonderful moral treatise about caring for the survival of the planet, and each other. |
| Cons |
Characters are too-contrived, the diversity feels forced upon you. |
| Bottom Line |
A utopian fantasy that is political and philosophical, spiritual and magical - spoiled only by a writing style that just made this a book chore to read. |

| Pros |
Starhawk's vision of a possible future shows the growth of a new age culture. |
| Cons |
Starhawk's personal views of a new age culture are unique to Starhawk. |
| Bottom Line |
Starhawk's perceptive comments on society have appeared in several nonfiction books. In Fifth Sacred Thing she shows a realistic culture based on those observations. A true futurist. |
