A continuation of the chronicles of the Talents, begun in "The Rowan" and "Damia". In the deeps of space, Mrdini scouts have crossed the path of three Hive ships - ships that are giant hulks of cell units, bearing the queens and workers out into space, to breed, multiply and destroy.

5.0 out of 5 stars What Happens to Damia's 4 oldest Prime Children?
Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2020

I really Loved that Anne McCaffrey continues the "Tower & Hive" Stories to the third Generation of Prime Talents. This Novel is mainly about the Action & Suspense, of Damia & Afra Lyon's 4 oldest children. I've Read this Outstanding, & Entertaining Series/Story several times, & found them/it Engrossing every time! In my opinion, this Novel is best read in sequence, the Third in the Series. I give "Damia's Children" my Highest Recommendation! ❤️📖 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Damia and Afra had eight children of which several are T-1. As they are getting older their time to take responsibilities to the F, T, and T. has arrived. Damia is especially concerned that they are all leaving home far to soon but each one has matured enough to be able to practice their Talents in New and surprising ways. Again another wonderful book by such a creative writer! Rest in Peace, Anne, your work will live on for many science fiction\fantasy readers for many years to come.

The previous books in the series are individuals, this book tells the story of Damia's eight children they work with aliens, the military, the politicians, the doctors. Everyone works together even in some cases people who were enemies before. A great story.

5.0 out of 5 stars Family saga continues
Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2018

Another enjoyable read by McCaffrey. Action, family interaction, and a book that was a pleasure to revisit. Too much of sify is thinly disguised horror. For entertainment and possibilities that don't leave me having nightmares there's nothing like a positive outlook on a future that leaves you hoping for the best.
Always a good idea to read this series in order.

5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE THIS SERIES
Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2014

I LOVE THIS SERIES!!!! I loved it in paperback and am soooo glad they are finally putting it out on Kindle. It does seem a bit strange they have put this series out backward (the final book in the series came out not long after Kindles hit the market) but I will take it however I can get it. Now just waiting until "The Rowan" is available and I will be set!

I love Anne McCaffrey and all her books. This one is part of a sequence of books that goes through generations of one family. She writes believable sci fi. Strong female leads

Since meeting the ‘Dini the human race and Damia’s children have achieved so much that they have integrated into a better understanding of what to do with each other and the Hive situation. Almost all of Damia’s children are helping in some capacity in the search of Hivers or watching the Queen on the moon. Will it help them to figure out how to stop the Hivers from destroying people and planets or will they never find the solution?
