Revisiting Pern via audiobook. Aside from some of the marked blind spots of 1960s second wave feminism, the world building and writerly craftmanship still hold up. I read the #Harperhall trilogy first, then #Dragonflight, #Dragonquest, and #TheWhiteDragon when I was still in elementary school and they got me into sci fi as a lifelong reader. Coming back decades later is eye opening, sometimes alarming, and yet still vindicating.

My buddy and I were talking about books that got us into our favourite genres. These two were pivotal in making me a fantasy lover. They are classics with dragons and great world-building. Anne McCaffrey was an amazing author, she's so dearly missed.

moranadatter The Harper Hall Trilogy was pivotal for me. I read these after those. 7y
BiblioNyan @moranadatter @ReadingOver50 They were for me too! I wouldn't be a fan of fantasy, or lover of dragons, without these. 💚💙 @Jaberwocky Mine too!! 7y

It's here!!! The incredible Hafsah (Icey Designs) designed me a one-of-a-kind #Pern candle. It's based on klah scents (coffee, and I replaced cinnamon with vanilla) and named after my favorite #Dragonflight quote. It is totally wonderfully gorgeous and smells amazing. I couldn't be happier. 😍 Expect a lot of photos of this in the future, especially given that original Pern series just got jacket redesigns that are en route to me now...

Can't have a SFF book haul without some DRAGONS!!! • Dragonflght is actually a replacement. I have my brother's copy, given to me when he passed away, and that thing is literally taped together because he read it so much. I didn't want to risk destroying it more, so when I found this better copy at a local bookstore for $1, I knew I had to have it! • (Book Haul 7 of 10)

My older brother was never really one for books so, when Dad bought #Dragonflight for him, it quickly joined the trickle of hand-me-downs that made up my possessions. Unlike the Liverpool football shirts, this one book sparked a passion. It took my love of reading into a whole new reality. To this day, #scifi and #fantasy are my go-to genres, and #AnneMcCaffrey remains my favourite author. Give it a shot; I mean, come on - it's got #dragons!
