Enchantress from the Stars
''Enchantress from the Stars'' is a young-adult science fiction novel by Sylvia Engdahl, published by Atheneum Books in 1970. It was her first or second book and the first of five set in the Anthropology Service universe (1970 to 1981).〔 Its sequel ''The Far Side of Evil'' (1971) features the same heroine, Elana, and the two are sometimes called the Elana series,〔〔 although the sequel is quite different in tone.
''Enchantress'' was a runner up for the 1971 Newbery Medal, the American Library Association award to the previous year's best children's book by a U.S. author. It won the 1990 Phoenix Award from the Children's Literature Association as the best English-language children's book that did not win a major award when it was originally published twenty years earlier. The award is named for the mythical bird phoenix, which is reborn from its ashes, to suggest the book's rise from obscurity.〔
A new American hardcover edition was issued by Walker and Company in 2001 with a foreword by Lois Lowry and afterword by the author.〔 Next year it was a finalist for the Book Sense Book of the Year Award in the Rediscovery category.
==Background==
Engdahl wrote parts of ''Enchantress'' in the 1950s; many concepts in the novel date from that time, prior to ''Star Trek'' and other 1960s science fiction. In a 1997 journal article, "Enchantress from the Stars: Sylvia Louise Engdahl, Star Trek and Science Fiction", Carol Littlejohn writes that many of the themes and concepts in the novel (such as the peaceful exploration of space without interfering in the history of other planets) are similar to those in ''Star Trek''.〔 However, the author notes that her characters take the rule of non-intervention much more seriously than does ''Star Trek's'' crew of the spaceship ''Enterprise''.〔
