Don't forget Joan Slonckzewski's _A Door Into Ocean_ (I apologize if I
misspelled her name)
It is a far-future sci-fi novel about a struggle between a pacifist
all-female society and a "normal" militaristic society like ours. I
particulary liked the biological explanation of their reproduction.
Also, Marion Zimmer Bradley's _The Firebrand_, a historical fantasy (like
_The Mists of Avalon_) has a stretch among the Amazons, so if you read all
of the others, you might try it.
