Bradley listened to the flak and adapted with the 'Chapter House' subseries during the 1980 and even wove the gender conflicts of Darkover into the story line.

Yeah, not looking to ban them - just to say that the harm that can done here is real and lasting. Which is exactly what homophobic parents say when they try to get books banned, so I don’t have answers, just complications.
My sympathies to another Darkover refugee 😣🫂

I’m very much not a fan of censorship.
I was also once a young reader who wanted to live in Darkover and didn’t have the filters, mentoring, or cultural context to see the problematic stuff (which gets waaaaay more problematic when you understand where MZB was actually coming from).

Wonderful episode! A few things did pop into my mind. I assumed the Gay Mage ref in the Guide was a reference to both Lackey and Darkover. I think the university in the 3rd Discworld book is very relevant. Other earlyish wizard unis are in Riddlemaster of Hed, the Book of Atrix Wolfe and Le Guin.

Large parts of who I am as a feminist, as an SF fan, and as a person were formed when I was SUPER into the Darkover books as a high school sophomore. Still devastated. I gave my copies away and donated the cover price to charity, but I'd never say to ban them - just "you should know"information.

I loved both of those series of SF novels!
I'm rereading the entire Dragonriders of Pern series in chronological (as best I can) order.
After that I'll tackle the whole Darkover series the same way.

Darkover is a pretty remarkable example of world-building. Some of it is a bit dated, and she got some flak from feminists in the beginning of the series.
Too bad she turned out to be a sexual predator.

It's a valid point, but I never doubt that information gets out, and I do think that normalizing registration just brings us back to the Darkover Ages (if you will) of risk aversion and "they stole the ideas in my fanfic for the plot of the show/book!"

There have been a number of fandoms which have permitted or encouraged fanfic only for it to end in disaster. There was a legal mess with Darkover and I believe with Xena. Not to mention the recent Star Trek fan film.

Yeah, that’s for sure.
Sanderson has middling YA fiction, as well as proper fantasy. Maybe start with Mistborn? At that age I was a bit obsessed with MZB’s Darkover series.

The cringe is frighteningly reminiscent of my later attempts to re-read Lou Alcott's gothic fiction.
There were regrettable Darkover references as well.
