Synopsis: In this future, there are five human sexual identities throughout the galaxy, and humanity has adjusted to this new culture. Except on the planet Hara: Here everyone must choose to be a man or a woman, and that is final. For hundreds of years, Hara has been out of contact with the Concord, the organization of human worlds, until this moment. Business between Harans and outsiders with different cultural assumptions is a profoundly destabilizing challenge to traditional Haran society. Warreven is a successful Haran attorney, a man who could have married the son of the ruler of the planet if he had chosen to be a woman. But Warreven is neither a man nor a woman, and his daily life is radically in conflict with his world. The social and political situation forces Warreven into the limelight and into the most bizarre identity crisis in contemporary science fiction, which is also the crisis of his world. No one remains as they were on Hara. "Scott
