Originally published in 1965, Star of Danger lays the groundwork for the classic, bestselling Darkover series. The Darkovans are descendants of a long-lost Terran colony ship and distrust the Terrans, who have taken up residence on their planet, fearing these strangers intend to disrupt the Darkover society. Many Terrans do feel that the people of Darkover should abandon their “backward” culture and join the Terran Empire.

Despite this mutual prejudice, Terran Larry Montray and Darkovan Kennard Alton forge a bond of friendship, allowing Larry to be one of the few Terrans to ever observe Darkovan life and customs firsthand. But Larry gets more than he bargained for as he finds himself in the midst of an ancient feud fought by unknown beings, deadly beasts, and alien intelligences.

Sobre l'autor

Marion Zimmer Bradley is a science-fiction and fantasy writer, novelist, and editor. She was born in Albany, New York on June 3, 1930. Bradley attended the New York State College for Teachers from 1946 to 1948. She earned a B.A. from Hardin Simmons University in 1964. Bradley did graduate work at the University of California at Berkeley from 1965 to 1967. Bradley sold her first story to Fantastic Amazing Stories as part of an amateur fiction contest. She sold her first professional story to Vortex Science Fiction in 1952. Her novels include The Sword of Aldones and The Planet Savers. Both novels were set on Darkover, the setting for more than 20 subsequent Bradley novels. Bradley also wrote The Mists of Avalon, a reworking of the King Arthur legend with more emphasis on the female characters. She used the same approach with The Firebrand, which was based on The Iliad.
