Search - Darkover Landfall (Darkover, Bk 1)

I wanted to enjoy this book and did until about halfway through when it became anti-abortion propaganda, combined with a very grim view of women's rights. I finished it, but I won't read any of Bradley's work again - left a very bad taste in my mouth.

An Earth colony ship crash-lands on the planet which will become known as Darkover, and the survivors slowly realize that many of their skills and most of their mindsets will not survive on this alien world.
