A group of Terran scientists plus a mining expert representing the funding behind the expedition land on a planet with a seemingly primitive population and bizarre weather. Freak storms strand the Terrans for far longer than planned, and as tensions riseamong them and some build close ties with the locals, they begin to discover that there is far more to the "simple natives" and the weather than they could have ever imagined.

About the Author:
Marjorie B. Kellogg is the author of The Dragon Quartet, Harmony, and A Rumor of Angels.

William Rossow is a space scientist with NASA, studying planetary atmospheres and climate.
Review:
“Might be the best science fiction novel of the year... highly recommended.”
Locus (for The Wave and the Flame)

“The solution that the alien race—the Sawls on Planet Fiix—find for their climate disaster may be our best chance on Planet Earth, too, if we fail to put the clamps on coal emissions in the next few years!”
—James Hansen, NASA Climate Scientist

“The Lear’s Daughters series has three- dimensional characters, sharp observation, stimulating science, fast action and a love story. It is exceptionally well written, and has what so much science fiction lacks—strong women characters and real soul. Both volumes are highly recommended.”
Oxford Times
