allright, anyone who reads the pern series, speak up, and tell us what you think of what book. Remember, try keep spoliers to a minimum, and have fun.

for me, I think that I have read everything in the pern series, though I am sure that I have missed one or two here and there

I have read:

Main Timeline
Dragonflight
Dragonquest
The White Dragon
All the Weyrs of Pern
The skies of pern

Harper Hall (Parallel to dragonflight, dragonquest, and the white dragon)
Dragonsong
Dragonsinger
Dragondrums

The Renegades of Pern (one book, parallel from the beginning of the present pass, to the beginning of All The Weyrs of Pern)

The Dolphins of Pern (parallel From the middle of All the Weyrs of pern, to somewhere in The Skies of Pern)

Prequels
Dragonsdawn (Arrival on pern)
Dragonseye (beginning of the second pass)
Moreta: Dragonlady of pern (dont remember how long after landing, but details Moreta's ride)
The MasterHarper of Pern (Details the life of Robinton from birth, to the point we are first introduced to him in Dragonflight)

I think that covers it, If I have forgotten any that I have read, I shall edit this post, and post another in this thread to inform people that I have edited.

Everyone else post what you have read, and discuss what your favourite is.

for me, I'd be hard pressed to choose a favourite, but I love the Harper Hall Trilogy, and the MasterHarper of Pern.
IMHO, the Harper Hall is the best crafthall there is smile.gif

This might sound odd and strange but I read all the books through the Library because they can order them for you. Has anyone read the newest one Dragonsblood? It's a good book but I'm not sure if I like it as much as the others.

I havent noticed any characters changing but I read them over a long time and slightly out of order blushing.gif whoops
