Letter from Kristopher

Hi Todd,

I just finished reading Dragonsblood. I loved it. I feel you did an exceptional job of making Pern your own, while staying true to the concept. I especially loved the back-filling of details about the original colonists.

I was wondering if there are any plans to “recontact” the culture the colonists left behind now that the Thread threat has been removed. Dragons could conceivably teleport to Earth, or wherever. What would be their place in such a universe?
I would be fascinated to see the clash of cultures.

Thanks for continuing the series.

Hi Kristopher,

Thank you! I’m glad you loved Dragonsblood.

I don’t think you’ll see the sort of expanded universe “recontact” you’re asking about. I think that Pern and the dragons really lose their purpose when exposed to the wider universe (Would dragons flame anything but mindless Thread? Would they even consider it?).

Cheers,
Todd
