Customer Reviews

If I could I would give "Damia's Children" higher than a 5

Damia's Children is a wonderful follow up to The Rowan and Damia. This is a wonderful series. Anne McCaffrey is a gifted writer and I love reading about telekentics and the things they do. The hive creatures are very strange and the way Zara reacts to the captured queen is awesome. I thought for sure the queen was going to eat Zara, but instead she seemed to not even really know she was there. The Rowan and all the others in this series are definately page turners from page 1 to the end. One just can't wait to get to the next page or the next book in the series. I am starting Lyon's Pride now and can't wait to see how that turns out. THanks to Anne for wonderful reading. Joy Jenkins

Exelent book

This is a very good book. All the people seem very real and the book makes you feel like your there with Damia's family.

An EXCELLENT BOOK. Need I say more?

I admit that I read this book before The Rowan, or Damia, but I'm sure that it's not going to make any differene on how I'll think of the series. This book is what started me off with Sci Fi. I'm going to buy the whole series when I get the chance! Thanx, Anne!!!

The best sci-fi book I ever read

I have read the whole series from The Rowan to Lyon's Pride, and I simply have to say that it is simple the best. I suggest them to all of my friends.

A truly delightful book...one of Anne's best!

Although I have read many of Anne's novels, Damia's Children truly captured my imagination and interest. The book opens leasurely, some years after its predecessor, the book Damia. The beautifully written openings describe in great detail the individual characters of Damia's Talented children, but it foreshadows the menace the reader expects. And true to its promises, the book plunges into an exciting expedition where the combined fleets of both the Human and Mrdini species track down the home world of their decades-old enemies, the Hive. But this book is not just about space-battles and "star wars". The reader witnesses the growing-up and maturing of Damia's four eldest children, and we even see glimpses of characters that one would expect to be obsolete: the Rowan, Isthia Raven, and the rest of Damia's children's predecessors who played such a large part in previous books. The book is definitely, without a doubt, a must-read, especially if you have read the previous two books, The Rowan and Damia..
