I just finished reading Dragonsblood (at which point my sister snatched it from me) and have to say that is one awesome book! A bit dark, but then Pern is not all sweetness and light the way so many people try to imagine it. I loved the book and I love the way Wind Blossom and the watch-whers are vindicated in it. That was the best part of all.

Having a steady job again I’m finally able to start getting hold of the books as well. I have one short story (Beyond Between) and one more book (Dragon’s Kin) to go. That was next on my list but when I saw this one, I remembered what you said at DragonCon a couple years ago, that the story had the information about why the fire lizards are scarce in the north and that dragonpair found in rock at Benden. So I got Dragonsblood first. Thanks for an awesome book!

I love your books and wanted to thank you and your Mom. For I had been very sick and bed ridden for a month. Then just as I got well, I got sick again. Though reading and escaping to Pern made it a time to get to know my Mom again, who also reads McCaffrey books as well. So now that I’m well I just wanted to thank you for the mother daughter reunion.

I also had some questions.

After I had read all my books five times my Father decided to go to a used book store and buy some that I didn’t have. Well, I ended up with a book called “Carmen Miranda’s Ghost is Haunting Space Station Three” with a short story in it titled “If Madam Likes You” by Anne McCaffrey. I was wondering if this was written by the Anne we know or another by the same name. I can’t find it on her site. I realize that Anne has written many short story’s for sci-fi magazines. So if this question can’t be answered I understand.

Also what is the name of the choose your own adventure story you wrote?
