Summary: A good history lesson of Darkover
Comment: For those who have heard of Marion Zimmer Bradley's tales of the planet of the bloody sun, this would be a good book to start with. It gives a synopsis of sorts of a great many of the previous books in the series, and while it's no substitute for those books, you'll at least have an idea of what's gone on in all those previous books.
The plot, I have to admit, is something straight out of the pulp fiction school, and sounds like something Bradley has done before - but that doesn't detract from the excellent quality of the writing, something that's been sorely lacking in the more recent Darkover novels. Still, this novel made me want to go back and reread even those. Who knows - maybe I'll change my mind about them after reading this one.

Summary: The Future unfurled
Comment: All though I do agree with the above author about the unconsistant genealogies in her series(I have encountered some of that in Mists of Avalon), focusing on that one fault ruins the impact and the refrencing of this book. the characters are there, before your eyes, acting out a life that you have always longed for while trying to avoid. Anyone who has had destiny put them in a maddening and unsuspected situation can relate to the main characters Margaret Alton and Mikhial Hastur/Lanart. I own this book and I can help but to read it over and over again because MZB shares JK Rowlings talent of holding little things in the book taht even the most careful of readers can't notice untill the fourth reading. This tale of our future is incredible and anyone even considering reading it should go ahead because it is anything but a waste of time.

Summary: A return to the great Darkover books
Comment: After the lackluster Rediscovery this book restored my confidence in MZB as a writer. As soon as I finished this book I wanted the next one in this trilogy within a series.
