I have all of Anne McCaffrey´s books and recommend every one to lovers of Fantasy, and newcomers too.
I love it when books take me literally out of this world, and Anne McCaffrey does…even when her stories DO take place on Earth! This series is on Pern, where dragons come from tiny to massive, and are the lifelong partners and companions of the men and women sworn to protect Pern from the destruction of Thread, a lethal visitor from another …
I find this series written with mediocrity and with dialog and characters to die for (Of boredom mostly). I don’t think much of Anne McCaffrey’s writing skills or originality, and she seems to have spawned a whole genre that shares in this poverty of imagination and insight. I like science fiction and fantasy but find these just don’t make the cut …
One of my favorite book series!
The Dragonriders of Pern have been on my bookcase since they were first published, and reread so many times, and will be read again many more times in future. I adore these books.
One of the most classic trilogies ever in SF/Fantasty. A completely original and refreshing take on Dragons that seems more realism than fantasy. Great world and character building. Engrossing stories that are hard to put down. Also timeless.
Entrancing – and very different – world where dragons serving a purpose!
Love Love Love all the Pern books!!
Totally believable science fiction, not fantasy as expected by many due to dragons int he title. I love the whole series.
The Pern series is one of my all-time favorites and is what got me hooked on sci-fi. I’ve read all of the novels and novelettes and was never disappointed. The mixture of science fiction and fantasy was perfect.
It broke my heart when the world lost Anne McCaffrey.
I loved this whole series! It’s a new world filled with great characters.
I loved the whole new world McCaffrey has imagined, takes you with her. I have enjoyed many of her books on Pern.
Awesome world…fun,fun read…just be prepared to read the whole series.
You have to read this series and all the books connected to this series. One of the best series ever
I’ve read and reread these books many times and they never get old.
One of the most original series I’ve ever read
I love every one of the Pern books. Mc Caffery is the best. I have all of her books in paper back, hard cover and e-book am now gathering audio books. Over the years have read some of them as many as 8 times.
A little hard for me to get ino at first but ten then it just draws you in…story telling like it should be
