A Darkover Planetary Fantasy Novel of Telepathic Animal Bonds, Rebellion, and War

On the planet Darkover during the feudal era of the Hundred Kingdoms, young noblewoman Romilly MacAran possesses the laran—a rare hereditary telepathic talent that allows her to mind-meld with birds of prey and horses. Refusing an arranged marriage that would strip her of independence, Romilly disguises herself as a boy and escapes into the mountains.

Living as an independent hawkmistress, Romilly's life is upended when civil war erupts between rival Darkovan kings. Captured and forced to serve military factions, she must decide whether to use her powerful telepathic animal bond to sway the war or protect her personal freedom.

Why You’ll Love This Book

Marion Zimmer Bradley delivers a classic entry in the Darkover series, featuring strong female independence, telepathic bond lore, and planetary romance worldbuilding. Perfect for readers of Anne McCaffrey's Pern series, Mercedes Lackey, and Andre Norton.
