Suzette Hadley Elgin is the author of a fine trilogy about a planet
called Mizzurah; the only title I can remember is the last volume,  called
'And Then There'll Be Fireworks'.  Mizzurah is a planet settled by
a number of disgusted Appalachians; needless to say, magic works.
I thought it was funny, and the heroine's marvelous.  Her name is
Responsible of Brightwater; need I say more?
 
Ms. Elgin also has written several stories/novellas about the Communipath
worlds, so called because telepaths are used for interstellar communication.
Unfortunately, they tend to burn out and die before they're twenty.
Again, I like the characters very much.  (Trivia note: Joanna Russ'
'The Two of Us' is based on the setting of one of Ms. Elgin's Communipath
novels.)
