Take to the Skies, oh Dragonriders!

Date of Review:  May 4, 2001
The Bottom Line: Another fantastic book from Anne McCaffrey, but it foreshadows the end of Pern as a series and a universe, and implies that all McCaffrey's universes will meld eventually.
Review: As a young child, I remember my first entrance into this wonderful world of Pern. Like most girls, I felt like Lessa during her Impression. I empathized with Menolly. And I absolutely loved Robinton. Who wouldn't?

The Skies of Pern

Date of Review:  Mar 19, 2002
The Bottom Line: Pern changes every minute, and this book proves it. With new technology, new abilities, and new characters, you must read this to be fully acquainted with the Dragonriders series.
