In 1985, Ross sold her first Darkover short story to Marion Zimmer Bradley's Free Amazons of Darkover. Following Bradley's death in 1999, Ross has continued the series, as well as editing six more Darkover anthologies. For the first time, here are all of Ross' Darkover short stories, some of them previously unpublished, now collected in one volume.

Industry Reviews

“This is the best Darkover novel in a long time.... It's a tale of culture clash, in classic Darkover style, a delightful return to a fascinating world, and a great read.” —Locus on The Children of Kings

“Fans of Bradley will certainly want to read this flashback into Darkover history.... Suspenseful, powerfully written, and deeply moving.” —Library Journal

Fans of Darkover rejoice! Ross's literary strength [is] her sensitivity to human needs and talents. – Publisher’s Weekly on The Fall of Neskaya

Deborah Ross…does a superlative job [and] perfectly captures the Darkover 'feel.' – Sherwood Smith on Thunderlord

“[The Alton Gift] is a must for fans of the series, and reads as if Deborah has been channeling Marion's spirit.” —Center City Weekly Press

Those who fondly remember the “Darkover” books (Stormqueen!; Hawkmistress!) set during the Ages of Chaos will welcome this new entry, which chronicles the aftermath of a conflict between two houses that can control the weather telepathically. – Library Journal Review on Thunderlord
