I was intrigued enough to read all(?) of the rest of the Darkover books, as sson as I could get hold of them. Excellent world building and wonderfully peopled. The first and only of her books that doesn't rush the ending...one believes this is mostly because there was a contract for a second book that was already being written.

Although some books are loosely connected, having characters in common, they were written to be read independently. Children of Hastur contains two novels, Heritage of Hastur and the sequel Sharra's Exile. Heritage of Hastur makes a fine entry point into the series, and many consider it MZB's finest novel. Certainly Lew Alton, Regis Hastur and Danilo Syrtis are among her most compelling characters. The Darkover books were written out of sequence too, and I don't actually recommend you read them chronologically. The first chronologically, for instance, Darkover Landfall, is more fun if you read other in the series first, then this origins novel to see oh, so that's where that came from! Also, some books early chronologically were early in Bradley's career, when she was still learning her craft, and it shows. In fact, Sharra's Exile is a rewrite of a very early book published in 1962, The Sword of Aldones. She conceived that book in her teens, and as a mature writer felt the theme deserved a better treatment than what she was capable of back then. I've read both versions, and this is definitely the better book, even if I don't think it quite hits the high mark of Heritage of Hastur, but together they certainly make a great read. ( )
