Dear Mr. McCaffrey

Hi, I just wanted to say that I admire your and Anne’s work, and that I am a sort of writer myself, though I haven’t published anything. I was wondering, do people from Earth (or another human populated planet) ever go back to pern? I was just wondering.

Sincerly

Nhorad,

Keep writing. The rules are: (1) write it; (2) finish it; (3) send it out; (4) repeat steps 1-3 until someone sends you a check.

In answer to your question — no, no one ever goes back to Pern. They did in “Rescue Run” and have now updated their charts to show Pern as a world unsafe for humans and uninhabited.

Cheers,
Todd
