Critic Reviews

"The transformation of Menolly from a terrified outcast to a woman secure within herself is skillfully handled, making her a sympathetic character with whom many readers will identify." ( School Library Journal)
"A superbly crafted fantasy in the heroic tradition....Unlike many sequels, this maintains the dramatic tensions of its predecessor." ( Horn Book)
"Although set in another world, where dragons fly and people have fire lizards as pets, Menolly's innermost concerns are wholly contemporary." ( Booklist)

I’m loving revisiting the world of Pern.

The reading order is a bit confusing but the stories are great.

Narration is not the greatest I’ve heard but way better than I’d do so who am I to criticise. Most of the time it’s okay it’s just occasionally it distracts from the story. Overall though easy listening.

I enjoyed listening to a book that is part of a series that I have read often over the last 40 + years.

Spoilt again, by incorrect pronunciations - possibly in some cases it is American pronunciations, eg, "buoy" as booey instead of boy - "grimace" as grim-ace instead of grimus - two examples, but the misplaced emphases are really the ones that indicate lack of proper preparation. But, your voice is the one thing that makes the readings acceptable- you are listenable.

Please Sally Darling - practice each chapter before recording.
