Enchantress from the Stars
Overview & Summary
A young woman from a highly advanced interstellar civilization is sent undercover to a medieval-level planet to subtly prevent its inhabitants from being colonized and exploited by a technologically superior but ethically reckless third civilization, and must pose as an "enchantress" using ordinary technology that appears magical to the planet's people. Sylvia Engdahl's Newbery Honor novel is a thoughtful science fiction exploration of colonialism, technology, and cultural relativism.
