| Re: Best moment in an Anne McCaffrey novel
Sorry guys, HATED Moreta and Nerilka's story. granted it might be considered a low point in society when they were furthest from remembering origins, and not having a clear path forward to where they were going, but Moreta having a similar path as Kylara and nobody caring? didn't sit right. for the person asking about what book to read? they ALL start somewhere in the middle. for a sampling of her stories though, maybe try Get off the Unicorn. collection of shorts in which most of her worlds are touched.
best moment? yeah Brekke's call hit that. both in her needing one person for her to hold on as well as the unity of the dragons to accomplish the impossible the first time.
next up would be the triumph felt by the colonists at fort hold when the dragons showed up "out of nowhere" unannounced..... and were taking on thread. nice build up of depression, followed by pure hope. felt the introduction was a trifle overdone though..... |
