![]() ![]() I have a few sitting here, but I will have to find the Kindle versions and Audibles to get by. I will now have to look up the continuation written with her son, Todd or those he wrote alone. Whew! That is a long time ago! It was only near the end of reading this book that I realized that this was the last solo book of the series. I did read most of this series about twenty-four years ago. It took me much longer to read, just because it didn't pull at me like, say, her Harper Hall books did. McCaffrey write the book with the male heaviness I felt? I just wasn't happy with how it progressed. What the Heck! Poor people want to read, too! But maybe Dick was only working with what was there? Did our dear Ms. And there is no loanability for these books. But there was no text-to-speech so I was stuck with his voice. Hill diminishes with his vocal characterization. Even Lessa, who is supposed to be a strong leader, Mr. Ugh! He makes all the women sound like weak whiners. I wouldn't have had to listen to the narrator, Dick Hill's version of the story. ![]() ![]() Had I read this a long while ago when my eyes were still good, I might have given a higher rating. Five Stars because I got to go back to Pern and enjoy the dragons and dolphins. Five stars because I miss Anne McCaffrey and she showed a different way to depict women in science fiction. I SO wanted to give this book five stars. ![]()
