The Empress of Earth by Melissa Scott
4.0
Melissa Scott was one of the newish science fiction authors I discovered after graduating from college and having time to read for pleasure again in the early 90s. This is the last book in a trilogy from the mid-80s that is new to me and is pure space opera with a strong female lead, faster than light travel that is like magic with harmonics and sound and tarot-like symbols, some fun supporting characters and a fight against a patriarchal Hegeomy. Nice escapist sci-fi.
