Publisher's summary

In Damia's Children, one of science fiction and fantasy's most beloved novelists, Anne McCaffrey, continues the story of psychic Talent begun with The Rowan and Damia. The Rowan's next generation of passionate and talented descendants prepare to defend their worlds against an alien attack of mysterious origin.

Damia had deflected a previous attack on the human worlds and sent the aliens into deep space. Hungry for more living space, they return with plans to dominate, armed with knowledge of the psychic defense they can expect from humanity.

However, as it has been learned that Talent can be both bred and taught, the combined abilities of Damia's children make them an even greater power than Damia or her mother. Each child has a special Talent that together makes them the most powerful Gwyn-Raven force yet to come. Unitedm they will confront the attackers face to face.

Critic reviews

"The author has created memorable, strong characters who are believable and well fleshed out. This is McCaffrey at her best." ( School Library Journal)
"Narrator Jean Reed-Bahle reads all three. She is an excellent reader - her low-pitched voice is expressive and easy to listen to." ( AudioFile)

A good continuation of the story

I enjoyed the continuation of the story. Each of the children are developing their own talents and all are needed in their own ways and encouraged. This book follows three of the children and how they help wishing the larger world and League.

Great Series

What made the experience of listening to Damia's Children the most enjoyable?

It was written by Anne McCaffrey, you just can't go wrong with any of her books.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Damia's Children?

Towards the end, what Zara does,,,, & no, I'll not give it away!

What about Jean Reed Bahle’s performance did you like?

That she reads the book, not perform every character in it.
