Book Reviews of The Dolphins of Pern (Dragonriders of Pern

I am an unabashed McCaffrey fan. She has given me many, many happy hours. I reluctantly post this book, but I got it from PBS and fair is fair- you can get lost in this magical, but all too believable world too. I reccomend starting reading McCaffrey with "Dragonflight", the start of the Pern series, but ANY McCaffrey is worth reading.

My mother read the book and she loved it! It was the best of the series she says because it combines with the old and the new.

If you enjoyed The Dragon Riders of Pern series, you'll like this new continuation.

This is a wonderful continuation of the Pern series.

Another Great Pern novel. A definite must read for Pern Series readers.

Can't say I remember this in any great detail, but ALL her Pern books are worth a wet Sunday afternoon's read.

Excellent saga of the dolphins of Pern and their society. I've enjoyed this book several times over. A must read if you follow the Dragon Riders of Pern.

very enjoyable part of the Pern series.

Enjoyed this continuation of the Pern Series.

I enjoy the Pern books.

Book is in good shape. Spine is lightly creased due to reading.

Another excellent book by McCaffrey. Youll LOVE it if you liked the Dragons of Pern series

When the first humans came to settle the planet of Pern, they did not come alone; intelligence inhanced dolphins also crossed the stars to colonize the oceans of the new planet while their human partners settled the vast continents. But then disaster struck. The deadly silver spores called Thread fell like rain from the sky, and as the human colonists' dreams of a new idyllic life shattered into a desperate struggle for survival, the dolphins were forgotten...

Now, centuries later, as the dragonriders of Pern were preparing to complete the momentous task of ridding their world of Thread forever, T'lion, a young bronze rider, and hs friend Readis, son of the Lord Holder of Paradise River Hold, made contact with the legendary "shipfish".
