The healer Snake travels through a post-apocalyptic world with her genetically engineered serpents, the cobra Mist and the rattlesnake Sand, and with the alien dreamsnake Grass, whose venom eases pain and the fear of death.
""Serpent la guérisseuse a traversé le grand désert pour soigner un enfant. Elle soigne avec ses serpents génétiquement modifiés. L'un d'eux, Sève, venu d'un autre monde, est particulièrement rare et précieux : il peut accorder le sommeil et endormir la souffrance. Lorqu'il est tué par un ignorant, Serpent se sent mutilée ; il lui faut partir à travers un monde étrange et désolé, celui du lointain avenir, en quête d'un autre serpent du rêve ..."
"When the healer Snake was summoned, she traveled the blasted landscape with her three serpents. From the venom of two of them, she distilled her medicines. But most valued of all was the alien dreamsnake, whose bite could ease the fear and pain of death. When the dreamsnake is killed, Snake's powers as a healer are all but lost. Her only hope of finding another dreamsnake lies in a treacherous journey to the far-off Center City, where Snake will be pursued by two implacable followers: one driven mad by love, the other by fear and need."

"Ce roman d'heroic-fantasy s'est vu attribué le prix Nébula 1979. Est-ce le ton particulièrement féminin de l'entreprise ou la description d'une étrange civilisation post-atomique? N'est-ce pas plutôt l'histoire elle-même, où une "medecine-woman" nommée Snake tente de retrouver, en une quête surprenante, une partie de ses pouvoirs? Quoiqu'il en soit, le jury a eu raison de couronner ce livre original."
