I am continuing in my Anne McCaffrey tribute reread. So far I have read the three Crystal Singer books and have read four Pern books (Dragonflight, Dragonquest, Dragonsong, and Dragonsinger) and in the middle of a fifth (Dragondrums).

When I think about how many years ago she wrote some of these books (such as the upcoming Ship Who Sang)) or of the genetic engineering of the dragons of Pern - the woman was decades ahead of her time in her ideas!

Post subject:  Re: what science fiction are you reading right now?
I have finished Dragondrums and The White Dragon and am now finishing up the Tower and the Hive series. I had recently reread the first two books before the author's death, so am now rereading Damia's Children, Lyon's Pride, and The Tower and the Hive.

Will probably read a bit more Pern - probably Moreta and Nerilka. Maybe the Masterharper. Thing is, there are so many books in that series I am having problems remembering which are the better ones of the later ones...hopefully Menolly will pop in here and advise. :) :lol:

Well...
Anything before Todd, IMO.

However, you can't really argue with dlb's POV. Something along the lines of:
"None of the books are worth reading after All the Weyr's."

But, even with the debacle Todd makes of the series, I like the setting too much to not read anything Pern.
Even Todd's stuff.

Post subject:  Re: what science fiction are you reading right now?
I have reread many of the Pern books now - am skipping any and all by Todd. :lol: :lol: :lol:

The problem is I can only find some of the books, the others are somewhere here in my house, but not sure where. :roll: (If I ever win the lottery one of the first things I do will be hiring someone to sort out my books. :wink: :lol: ).

So for the Pern books I have so far reread:
Dragonflight
Dragonquest
Dragon Song
Dragon Singer
The White Dragon
Dragon Drums
Renegades of Pern
All the Weys of Pern
and am in the middle of
The Dolphins of Pern.

(Man, Aramina is the most irritating character McCaffrey ever created. No wonder I never reread Renegades or Dolphins before. :lol: :lol: :lol: )

I have also found:
Nerilka's Story
Rescue Run
Dragonseye
Masterharper of Pern

And Nerilka must be read with the still MIA Moreta, Rescue Run must be read with MIA Dragon'sDawn, etc. etc.

I will keep looking. In the meantime, I have read the three Crystal Singer books, the five Tower and the Hive books, and the two Brain Ship books which I like best (The Ship Who Sang and The Ship Who Searched. If I can find them in my messy multitude of bookshelves, I also want to reread the first Acorna book (like the first better than the others in that series) and the three Petaybe books. :)

Just starting Foundation and Empire, by Asimov. Liked Foundation, but didn't love it. I didn't realize it was basically a collection of short stories. Had I known that, I probably would've passed on it.

I kept seeing many of my FB friends raving about The Hunger Games and when I saw the movie was coming out, decided to grab the trilogy. I'm just starting book 3 and am highly enjoying it. Reminds me of watching and reading the Tripods Trilogy.

It's good, you should look it up. Also available on Kindle, if you're into that.

It was nominated for a 2012 Hugo award.
