In scenes of excellent bloodshed, the invaders a re routed at the end - but the outcome is by no means obvious, de spite the aid of a renegade invader, Lieutenant Kire, and, more s ignificantly, of the winged people, regal, fierce, libidinous, le athery masters of the sky. The gloriously strange fantasy world c omes newly alive in Delany's masterful prose - the setting was fi rst used by him in 1962 in a short story.
