Publisher Description

The Rowan was one of the greatest telepaths ever born, treasured by the people she saved from alien invasion—and loved by a young man who never hoped to win her heart. In spite of his feelings, Afra remained loyal to the Rowan. He stayed by her side and helped to raise her Talented daughter, Damia. Now years later, Damia is a full-grown Talent of great power. Terrible alien voices echo within her mind. And a wondrous new feeling for Afra is growing within her heart.…

In a universe under seige, only one thing can defeat the power of fear: the power of love.

"I did not have high hopes when i started reading this book, I had just read the rowan and it kind of bored me but since i had this book and the next I decided to go ahead and read it. I ended up really liking this book, actually i ended up really likeing Afra. Damia is set sometime in the far future. Humans have grown and fine tuned Telepathic abilities and used them to go out and populate the universe. Damia overlaps The Rowan a little with the telling of Afra's life but it mostly picks up where The Rowan left off. The Rowan and Jeff Raven have just destroyed a giant ship of Beatle like creatures dead set on the destruction of Jeff Ravens home planet and started a family. Damia is The Rowans youngest Daughter and the most like her. Afra is The Rowans best friend and second in command of her tower.So he is already fully grown by the time Damia is born so on that note i'm not gonna lie i was a little creeped out by him and the role he was going to play but it was really well done and not creepy at all and by the end of the book Afra had made it into the list of my top favorite Characters. It was a little slow going at times but it ended on just the right note to make me immediatly pick up the next book and start reading."

    " The characters are a little too self-aware (or obtuse) to be entirely believable, but with a little willing suspension of disbelief, this is a great yarn. Love the story. "

    " I got quite emotional at times, having to wipe away tears. More so for this, the second book, than the Rowan. I could not put the book down though, reading straight through until it was finished. Looking forward to the next book in the series. "

    " Too much of this book was a repeat of "The Rowan" without giving you any new information or a different perspective of the events that happened. disappointing because of this. "

    " Have always enjoyed the later telepath works of Anne McCaffrey. The 'Pegasus' books are okay, but these later works are richer and enjoyable to read. "

    " I enjoyed the portrait of children with talent. Damia had more character development than most McCaffrey heroines. A fun book with an interesting dovetail into the series with Afra. "

    " Eh. Don't bother with this McCaffrey series of telepaths in space, having tepid relationships while throwing cargo ships around. Stick with the Pern series. "

    " While the Rowan sucked me into this series and reading in general, this book is by far my all time favorite. Damia is strong willed, headstrong and stubborn and is just a wonderful character. I could go on and on but I am leaving it at that and will let you readers enjoy the book. "

    " I liked this one, but the romance in it made it kind of squicky. I don't remember being bothered by it when I was a teenager, but the idea of the romantic interest standing in loco parentis for the heroine was icky. Even if the actual romance didn't show up until she was an adult. "

    " Found this at a church book sale years ago. I don't think I realized it wasn't the first book in this series when I bought it, but I got the rest of the series out of the library and read them all. McCaffrey always has interesting characters and worlds; the Rowan's is no exception. "

    " This is the final book based on "The Rowan." This series does not compel me the way some of her others do, but the characters and situations are interesting and believable. It was fun to see Rowan and Jeff as grand-parents, and I'm always a fan of the resolution to stories. "

    " To quick, descriptive and rushed in my opinion. Frankly I think McCaffrey should have just left it at Damia and not gone on this tangent. To many characters and stories to fallow like the previous two: Damia's Children, and Lyon's Pride. "

    " I hated this conclusion to the Rowan series - I read it some time ago, but remember being bored to death with page after page of space-battle and precious little of the character interaction or relationships that I read the first few books for. Yuck. "

    " This is the only book that I've actually flung across the room. It was because of a scientific inaccuracy. You can't use gas chromatographs to identify unknowns! I actually wrote to her about it and got a very cordial response. "
