From the back cover: WHEN THE COMYN RULE... Darkover, planet of the Bloody Sun, at the time when Terra has rediscovered this long-lost colony ruled by families who wield their mind powers of laran for good or ill. Now, with Comyn power declining and the Terran influence on the rise, the people of the Seven Domains are caught between the time-tested pathways of tradition and the lure of new ways of living and thinking. So enter this turbulent age, where, in five longer tales, three of them by Marion herself, you will see what future awaits a half-Terran/half-Darkovan lord... the choice Rohana Aillard-Ardais must make between Comyn rule and her heart's desire...the fate of a telepath torn between Tower and Domain...and who will triumph when Comyn, Terrans, Catpeople, Free Amazons, and matrix masters vie for control in this ever-changing world of the Bloody Sun.
