Reading guide
- Darkover history period:
- Against the Terrans-The Second Age (After the Comyn)
- What to read before and after:
-
You can read The Heritage of Hastur before
in order to obtain information about Regis Hastur, but this is not at all
mandatory. The main character, Jason, has an important role in The World Wreckers.
- Notes:
-
A short novel which is quite artificially related to Darkover. But
interesting.
"Official" presentation (from Daw Books)
Originally published in Amazing Stories in December 1958, this was
the very first Darkover novel to see print. It was here readers were first
introduced to the now-legendary world of Cottman IV, at a time when the
Terrans are desperately seeking a cure to a disease of epidemic proportions
which threatens the lives of Darkovans and Terrans alike.
