What this book is about

Storm Constantine's Wraeththu trilogy collects Enchantments of Flesh and Spirit, Bewitchments of Love and Hate, and Fulfillments of Fate and Desire — the foundational novels of her world where humanity is being supplanted by the Wraeththu, hermaphroditic beings of greater physical and spiritual power. Constantine's lush prose and vast imagination created a cult classic of speculative fiction, but the novels are definitively adult: graphic sexual content, violence, and spiritual transgression are central to the Wraeththu experience.
