The Future unfurled
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
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.
A return to the great Darkover books
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
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.
I wish I could give it 6.....

The first Darkover book I've read, and one of the best Sci-fi/Fantasy books I've ever read. I now plan to read the rest of the series. MZB did a good job of writing the main character.
I started with this book and was hooked.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This was the first MZB novel I ever read. After finishing it, I wanted to know more about Darkover. I was hooked. Because I had never read any of her books before I didn't notice any of the inconsistancies that everyone says are throughout the novel. It was great as a first book because it encompases everything about Darkover. It made me want to go out and buy all the other books in the series, just to learn about all the families of Darkover. I give the book an 8. It was great.
