On Ido, island of Sphinx people, cocooned cities, and Mer
Ancestors, love and monogamy are strictly prohibited, physical
pleasures abound, and a brewing civil war pits youth and virility
against age and experience. The Ido Youth seek the preservation of
Taste, a set of carnal sex rites beginning in the 21st year and
ending with climax, Enlightenment, and Elderhood. Meanwhile, the
Elders vow to obliterate the old traditions in favor of The One
Faith, a religion of love, marriage, restraint, and discipline
under the direction of a mysterious foreigner known simply as, The
Guide. At the center of the war is Onya, esteemed warrior and
daughter of the shrewd Elder General Dame. Though dedicated to both
Taste and tradition, she begins to question the very core of her
beliefs when she falls in love with Quince, co-General of the Youth
Cause. Together they must navigate otherworldly pleasures, the
savagery of war, an intrusive religion, and their own forbidden
love.
