I love her books too. Pern and the Rowan series are my favorites.

[NicoleLJ]

I haven't read her Rowan Series yet but I have read her Acorna The Unicorn Girl Series as well. Would you suggest the Rowan Series? What is it about?
Nicole

[drothergoodnow]

I would highly recommend it if you are into psionics (super psychic powers). That's all I'll say about it. Don't want to spoil it for you. I'll have to pick up the Acorna series.

[NicoleLJ]

I will defiantely check it out. Another good Series of hers that I enjoyed is the Doona Series. Those were really good books that I could read over and over agian.

I've seen them in the book stores, but haven't read them. I used to be able to read a book a day, but now, for some reason I can barely read. I have 5 books going, and it's all I can do to get through a chapter...

I'll have to check those out too....

*hand up* Me! I've only read the Pern though, and not all of them. I rely on my local library for most fiction books else I'd spend a fortune.

[Karen]

Me! Me! I do! I have wanted myself a dragon since first reading them years and years ago. Wanted a dragon - or we'd joke that Ma thought her car was a dragon - because that way she might get somewhere on time!

[AbbyMom]

I've enjoyed some of her Pern books and a few of the co-authors. Generally I prefer the hard science fiction, but McCaffrey is an excellent writer and her books are always enjoyable.

[Pawsitive Thinking]

Not read any of her books - currently hooked on Jodi Picoult

[smokey the elder]

I love the Pern series and in particular one of the tricks the dragons can do (don't want to spoil!)

[Aspen and Misty]

Anne McCaffrey is my favorite author and has been for sevral years. I own most of her Pern books because I love her portayl of dragons.

I'm with Karen on this in that ever since reading her books I want a dragon of my own. Think you can buy one??

I would also like to add that two of my animals are named after charactors in her Pern Series...

Please meet Jaxom:


and Sharra


LOL.

Been a huge fan of hers since Junior High. I was lucky enough to meet her and her son Todd at Dragon*Con in 2004.

I'm a huge dragon nut and collector because of her Pern series.

A friend and I also started an online roleplaying club which we have since left because real life got in the way, but the group is still going strong.

I've tried to read the Rowan series as a teen but just couldn't get into them. Been meaning to pick them up again.

I also ended up getting Crested Geckos because of how much they remind me of little dragons. I should make wings for them. *laughs*

[Denyce]

I also have loved the pern books. I devoured them all. I wanted to suggest a couple of other series by other authers if you like these books.

first off is the Ghatti Series by Gayle Greeno. These are large cats with psychic abilities.

Also is the new Joust Series by Mercedes Lackey. Excellent dragon series.

I read constantly...can't not have a book on me...my purse has to be large enough to hold a paperback and I buy them all because I love to be the first one to read them.

It might be interesting to have some kind of book swap.....hmmmm.....

I am just terrible at mailing things however

People buy me BN gift cards and my mom always buys me a membership for christmas each year so I can save money all year long.
