Cover Notes
The most dangerous matrix on all Darkover was the legendary Sharra. Embodied in the image of a chained woman, wreathed in flames, it was the last remaining weapon of the Ages of Chaos that had almost destroyed civilization on the planet of the Bloody Sun.
The Sharra had been exiled off-planet among the far stars of the Terran Empire in the custody of Lew Alton... until he found himself called back to his homeworld to contest his rights.
But once the Sharra was back, the flaming image spread and wide--and set in motion events that were to change the land, the domains, and the future of Darkover forever.
Sharra's Exile published by Daw Books in 1981 is a complete rewrite of The Sword Of Aldones published by Ace in 1962. The Sword of Aldones is actually the real second Darkover novel published by Marion, but as this is a re-write I have noted it but not kept it as a separate title. The chapter two of book one (pages 39 to 57) of Sharra's Exile was already published in a slightly different form as a short story: Blood Will Tell? in The keeper's Price?.
