Untitled[edit]

I've been editing this page and wonder if it's up to standard? I'll continue with the other Darkovan novels when I have time. PlainJane 05:39, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Shattered Chain: matrix use by men[edit]

You mentioned in the article that only women use matrixes on Darkover. There are many examples, all thru the Darkover books, of men also using them. One example is in The Shadow Matrix where Mikhail is given a matrix, on his hand, by Varzil that eventually turns into a ring with a matrix stone that is very powerful. Also, in Sharra's Exile men used matrixes. There are other references that I can't remember now. Great article though! Breeze530 21:45, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Gender and society in The Shattered Chain[edit]

I really like this section, but it seems like original research to me. Does someone know a few sources we could add? --KagamiNoMiko (talk) 14:54, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
