This omnibus features two classic, long-unavailable Darkover novels- Darkover Landfall and Two to Conquer -in one volume for the first time. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I had the original Darkover Landfall, but gave it to a neighborhood a library. I Hadn't Read "Two to Conquer", so I bought the omnibus version. I reread the story and it was just as great as the first time. Two to Conquer was pretty good too.
Not what I've expected, but not that bad...

When I`ve attempted to tackle the Darkover saga in Chronological order, Landfall was the first place to go (I`ve already had read a few of the novels). I was expecting an "origin" story, where all the mysteries were solved or hinted, but instead, this is a stand alone novel, that is vaguely connected to the rest of the saga. In it self not a very good one. One the other hand "Conquer" is very long book, set at the end of the Ages of Chaos, with a very complex story. Sometimes you feel like quiting during the reading, but I must say that the last chapters made my journey trough all this novel very rewarding, at the end you end up loving this wounded characters.
