Not dragon lizards as my secret (secret) friend likes English dragons. NB will not be making hats with this yarn again as I had the opportunity to watch it turn from beanie to bucket hat in three days.

This book was left behind by one of my daughters when she moved out years ago, and it was the perfect choice for prompt 29 of #52bookclub24: “Published in a Year of the Dragon“. It was published in 1976 and, as the title suggests, it features dragons! I loved the story! Wish I had read it when I was young.

BarbaraBB A great find indeed! 10mo
TheAromaofBooks This is a great series. 10mo
kwmg40 @Librarybelle @BarbaraBB I was very excited when I saw it was published in 1976! 10mo
kwmg40 @willaful @TheAromaofBooks I‘m definitely going to real more in this series! 10mo
TheAromaofBooks It's a little weird because there is the whole long Pern series, and within that series there are two trilogies, including this one. I liked these three books better when I read them within the context of the longer series, but there are like 20+ in the Pern series, so it's a serious commitment 😂 10mo
PuddleJumper Oh the nostalgia! I devoured them in my teenage years 10mo
Andrew65 Love the look of this. Well done 🎉🎉🎉 10mo
Larkken These were my favorites in the Pern series! (Also, possibly not a coincidence, my first McCaffreys) glad you enjoyed the first one. 10mo
kwmg40 @TheAromaofBooks @Larkken I'd read another book in the Pern series several years ago. I did like it, but for some reason, never got back to the series until now. Well, I'm convinced I need to read more from the series! 10mo
kwmg40 @PuddleJumper I'd read a lot of Heinlein in my teenage years and some of them make me cringe now when I reread them, though they're still enjoyable in many ways. I imagine the Pern series stands up better to the test of time! 10mo
kwmg40 @Andrew65 Thanks! 10mo

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.
