Book description
It is the night of Two Moons Passing - An important right-of-passage
night fishing trip for Jude, a young boatman who has never seen a woman
in his life. His is a simple fishing village with sailboats, but where
are the women? The small population comes from boy babies, occasionally,
and now very rarely found on the beach. The village is aging, dying. On
a waterworld with no continents, these are the sex-segregated
descendents of the crew of a crashed starship where the women have
genetically adapted faster to the aquatic conditions while the men lag
behind. And on such a world, drastic mating methods are required! It
