The Fall of Neskaya (Clingfire Trilogy #1)

Return with Marion Zimmer Bradley in The Fall of Neskaya to the best-selling world of Darkover during the tumultuous era of The Hundred Kingdoms. In a terrible time of strife and war, when this unique fantasy world is divided into a multitude of small belligerent domains vying for power and land, one corrupt, ambitious tyrant will stop at nothing-even the use of terrifying matrix weapons-to control all of Darkover!

Praise for the novels of Darkover: I don't think any series novels have succeeded for me the way Marion Zimmer Bradley's DARKOVER novels did. (Locus)

Literate and exciting. (New York Times Book Review)
