Publisher Description
What forces would operate if there were two objects that were absolutely identical in form and substance? This problem has occupied both workers in magic and the scientists of physics and psychology. It is the pivot of Marion Zimmer Bradley's novel of Darkover during the final flaming days of the Ages of Chaos. This is the story of the era when the planet of the Bloody Sun was divided into a hundred warring kingdoms and civilization teetered on the edge of oblivion. It is the story of Bard di Asturien, ambitious soldier-outlaw, and of his opponent, Varzil the Good, who struggled to establish the Compact. And it is also the story of a man from distant Terra named Paul Harrell who was the exact duplicate of Varzil's enemy. Two to Conquer is a novel of social forces in combat, of the use and misuse of science, of war, of rape, and of witchcraft.

About Marion Zimmer Bradley
Marion Eleanor Zimmer Bradley (1930–1999) received her BA from Hardin Simmons University
in Abilene, Texas, and her graduate degree from the University of California–Berkeley. She was a science fiction and fantasy fan since her teens and had
written as long as she could remember, but only for school magazines and
fanzines until she sold her first professional short story to Vortex Science Fiction. She wrote
everything from science fiction to Gothics but is probably best known for her
Darkover novels and her Arthurian novel, The
Mists of Avalon. In addition to her novels, she edited magazines, both
amateur and professional.
