    Sequel to Freedom's Ransom

    Does anyone know if there is going to be a sequel to Freedom's Ransom (Freedom Series) or a continuation of the series/universe of some nature? There are so many loose ends, specifically, who and where are the Farmers.

    The Ends of Anne's books.

    I was just wondering what people though of how Anne ends her books. Only read her Pern series myself but she seems to end them kind of abruptly and I think there should be more to them sometimes.

    How many Pern books have you read?

    The title says it all. How many Pern novels have you read so far? I'm about at four, once I finish Moreta I'll be at five.

    Anne McCaffrey - The Masterharper of Pern

    Original review by Jane Jinn: I was intrigued, but disappointed. I had been a fan of Anne McCaffrey's for several years and have read, re-read, and analysed her books while waiting for each new one to come out, but this is where I gave up and stopped reading. Robinton is just too perfect...

    This October is the 40th anniversary of the publication of "Weyr Search", the first story about Pern. "40 Years of Pern" commemorates this grand occasion, a book of essays by Pern fans, explaining how they came to first read Pern, and what it has meant in their lives. Some tales are touching...

    Eragon

    Eragon. It has said to be that this book angerd fans of Mcafry to the limit because of it similer fetures of dragonriders and telpathic connection of the the rider and their dragons. Did you hate this book? Or did you see it as an acplistiment for a young boy who started writing at 15...

    Which is your favourite book? (Any series)

    Rearranging my bookcase recently led to my rediscovering several novels that I thought I'd lost, and I was pleased because they were some of my favourites. That got me thinking about which one - out of any of Anne's series - was my actual favourite. I think my favourite has to be The White...

    Restoree

    I'd like to put in a word for this one. Pretty well straight SF, with an engaging heroine, an unusual plot, and a light and amusing touch. An easy, feel-good sort of read. It's still hanging on to its place on my bookshelves after over 35 years - in fact, I think it'll soon be time to read it...

    Favourite character?

    Who is your favourite character from any of Anne McCaffrey's novels? I find it difficult to limit my favourites to just one. I think Piemur has always been a favourite, as well as Menolly (in the earlier books). Out of the dragonriders I always like T'Gellan for his humour, and from the crafts...

    Best moment in an Anne McCaffrey novel

    I started a thread like this for a different author, so I thought I'd try one here, too. What do you think are the best moments in an Anne McCaffrey novel? In my opinion, my favourite bit by far has to be at the end of DragonQuest, when Brekke calls for F'Nor and Canth during their ill-fated...

    Which book would make the best film?

    This was inspired by the 'Dragon Riders' thread, but I thought it might be worth asking anyway. Which one of the Pern books would make the best film? I think that Dragonflight would be the best choice, as it explains the situation perfectly, but I've heard some say that Dragonsdawn would be a...

    Dragon riders

    I have been an Anne MacCaffery fan since a young girl. The Ship Who Sang was the first book that moved me to tears. So am I the only one to feel uncomfortable about all the hype over the film of Eragorn? Anne created a world where humans rode fire breathing dragons long before this book was...

    Green mothers

    When did green dragons stop mating? The books aren't by any means chronological, especially with the introduction of between times, but I clearly read one book saying that greens are made barren by brimstone while many others having greens with mating flights, including some during Thread...

    A place in my heart!

    The first ever fantasy book I read was Dragonsong when I was 12 (won't say how long ago that was!) and since then I've been hooked on reading fantasy! So, Anne McCaffrey will always have a fond place in my heart - not to mention the fact that she's a damn good writer! The Pern books will always...
