This is the novel of four who defied the powers of the matrix guardians - fanatics who protected those powers so that the planet of the ruddy sun might never fall beneath the infulence of materialistic Terrans. The four who found themselves fused into a terrifying unity that in defiance were two men and two women. All the forces of Ancient Darkover were to combine to resist this unnatural alliance, and the novel that grew out of this physical and psychic conflict displays the talent of Marion Zimmer Bradley at its finest.
