Petite can be neat! - The White Dragon: Pern vol. 3

Date of Review:  Mar 10, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you love the series, you'll like this book. If you like the series, you should read the book for completeness sake.
Review: The World
The planet Pern is much like Earth, and is, in fact, populated by humans. The humans share the planet with large, telepathic dragons who can chew a stone which enables them to breathe fire. These fire-breathing friends are especially...

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2003
The Bottom Line: Nowhere near as good as DragonFlight or DragonQuest. Not a book that stands up well outside of the series, either.
Review: Overview

Pros
Great descriptive prose as always...
Cons
... but characterisation and plot...
 

Still a great novel, but suffers from sequel syndrome.

Date of Review:  May 8, 2004
The Bottom Line: It is worth it in its own right, but it's best enjoyed after a diet of the first two books in the series.
Review: I m sure it s difficult, sometimes, to write a novel that is eagerly anticipated by fans of your writing. The pressure must be daunting, knowing that you have to live up to the standard that you yourself set with your earlier work. This must be...

Audio - MP3 CD, White Dragon
Never had there been as close a bonding as the one that existed between the daring and adventurous young Lord Jaxom and his extraordinary white dragon, Ruth. Pure white and incredibly agile, Ruth was a dragon of many talents, though almost everyone on Pern thought he was a runt that would never amount to anything. But Jaxom knew better, knew he could teach his dragon to fly and to destroy the deadly silver Threads that fell from the sky. Disobeying all rules, Jaxom and Ruth trained in secret. Their illicit flights seemed but a minor disobedience - until they found themselves in the path of danger and in a position to prevent the biggest disaster of all.
