Product Description

Product Description

A continuation of the chronicles of the Talents, begun in "The Rowan" and "Damia". In the deeps of space, Mrdini scouts have crossed the path of three Hive ships - ships that are giant hulks of cell units, bearing the queens and workers out into space, to breed, multiply and destroy.

A classic story from one of the masters of the genre

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, and I was in it......., 28 Dec 2000
I have been a McCaffery fan for quite a few years, grabbing anything and everything with her name on. The Tower and the Hive chronicles began in "The Rowan" and "Damia" continue in this the 3rd book, These books seem to continue the thoughts began in "Pegasus in Flight" although at a future point in time. Better still as one of Damia's Children is called Zara, I could really picture myself in the story. Another fantastic book from Anne McCaffery, no dragons in this one, only giant bugs!

4.0 out of 5 stars Damia's Children, 25 Mar 2005
By bookaholic - See all my reviews

This review is from: Damia's Children (Hardcover)
Now she's cooking again. I'd bought the whole "Tower and Hive" series because I'd enjoyed "Talents of Earth" a great deal. The first two instalments were a major disappointment. With "Damia's Children" McCaffrey once again brings action into the picture as a main ingredient rather than an appendage to a love story. Thank heavens for that. It began to get a bit mushy for me.

In this book Damia's children are finding their place in the FT&T. Laria is sent as an emissary to the Mrdini on their planet Clarf. Their next to eldest child Tian is sent on board an exploratory naval ship in the role of a go between for the Mrdini and the humans. Both Laria and Tian experience what it is like to be away from the support of their powerful family.

At the same time a Hive ship is discovered on the way to where the coalition had thought the Hive home planet was. This brings about complications and difficulties for Tian.

The book ends unfinished and one has to read the next instalment in order to see what happens. The three books "Damia's Children", "Lyon's Pride" and "The Tower and the Hive" belong together. None of them are stand-alone books. This is both positive and negative. As all of them are currently available on Amazon, this should not be a problem for the McCaffrey fan.

I would not recommend this series as a first experience with the world of McCaffrey. A book like Nimisha's ship would probably be a better first venture.
