This list was compiled for me by a friend who took a published
chronology (by Bradley) and added the newer books in the order
that he percieved them from reading them. I can not attest any
further to their accuracy or completeness.

The chronology of the Darkover books is:
Darkover Landfall
Stormqueen!
Hawkmistress!
Two To Conquer
The Spell Sword
The Shattered Chain
Thendara House
The Forbidden Tower
Star Of Danger
The Bloody Sun
Winds Of Darkover
Heritage Of Hastur
Sword Of Aldones / Sharra's Exile         (alternate versions of
                                           return of Lew Alton
The Planet Savers
The World Wreckers

About that chronology - I just finished re-reading THENDARA HOUSE (it's
actually better the second time around, or maybe I was in a different mood),
and it seems to me that it comes after THE FORBIDDEN TOWER (maybe - both
books are almost simultaneous),not before.  Anybody out there want to
discuss it?

On the topic of THENDARA HOUSE - it struck me as being lopsidedly feminist
(for lack of a better word, no flames, please!) when I first read it, but
this time around it was OK.  Maybe it gets better over the years, or else
this time I wasn't quite so put off by a book that had very few sympathetic
male characters (and why should it?).  Perhaps I've developed a new
outlook...
