Dragonriders of Pern
Anne McCaffrey
Del Rey, 1988
There be Dragons!
I have had a lifelong love of all things dragon and have long been a fan of Anne McCaffrey and her Dragonriders of Pern series. Such a fan, that I've read my paperback versions again and again until the only thing holding them together were rubber bands! Thus began my ...

Dragon's Fire (The Dragonriders of Pern)
Anne Mccaffrey, Todd J. Mccaffrey
Del Rey, 2007
Nice addition to the Pern series
Just finished this book and must say I really enjoyed it. I was hoping for some novels about the time of Lessa and the days after the last Thread fall, but it is really nice to see some of the events that happened earlier in the history of Pern. If you love the Pern ...

Dragonseye
Anne McCaffrey
Del Rey, 1997
The return of the Thread
It has been over two hundred and fifty years since the first humans arrived on Pern. The original colonists had been, for the most part at least, dedicated to the idea of establishing a human society that was not dependent on technology, that would go back to a ...

Dragon Harper (Dragonriders of Pern, The)
Anne Mccaffrey, Todd J. Mccaffrey
Del Rey, 2008
Not excellent, but good and worth reading
I think a couple of these reviews are a bit harsh. Sure, Todd has to find his way around and always will be measured against his mother's legacy - and that's a tough one!
So far I've liked all the "mother/son" collaboration results. This one is not so much about ...

The Masterharper of Pern (Dragonriders of Pern)
Anne McCaffrey
Del Rey, 1998
Robinton Revealed
I enjoyed listening to Robintons early years. It gave me a new view into a character that I have always loved in the Pern novels.

A Gift of Dragons
Anne McCaffrey
Del Rey, 2002
Wonderful Introduction
I came into the Pern series and Anne McCaffrey's writing when I was around the age of 10. I found the books wonderful and exciting. The way McCaffrey gives life to her characters is amazing! A Gift of Dragons is great for people who have never read the Pern series and ...

Maelstrom: Book Two of The Twins of Petaybee
Anne Mccaffrey, Elizabeth Ann Scarborough
Del Rey, 2008
Maelstrom (The Twins of Petaybee, Book 2)
It kept up the pace and the story line as book 1 left off. I really enjoyed it and very much look forward to Book 3.

Dragondrums (Harper Hall Trilogy)
Anne McCaffrey
Aladdin, 2003
This book is a winner!
My admiration for Anne McCaffrey knows no bounds. I think she has created some wonderful fiction. I credit her Harper Hall series with fostering a great love of reading and music in me at a very young age. I found the first book DragonSong at the library when I was ...

All the Weyrs of Pern (Dragonriders of Pern Series)
Anne McCaffrey
Del Rey, 1992
Telepathic dragons and a millennia-old computer - this is the perfect capper to the Pern series...
With a respectful nod to all her brilliant other works, when I think of Anne McCaffrey, I always think of dragons first, and, specifically, the telepathic dragons of Pern and their bold riders. From Dragonflight (Dragonriders of Pern), the first published novel about ...

Nerilka's Story (Dragonriders of Pern Series)

Another great book from Anne McCaffery
Nerilka's Story is a back story to Moreta. It takes place at the same time. A wonderful story about a lesser know character.
