Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The only one book that compares to this is brian jaques redwall series. I still go back and resist these books several times a year and they never disappoint.

One of my favorite scenes involves masterharper robinton and his eloquent smackdown of the skeptics. The characters are brilliantly believable. Eagerly i read each new installment as the years turned by.

Lessa is the only surviving member of the family who held ruatha. R'gul, the current weyrleader, wants to wait and see, until leissa has had enough.



Cons

None of the characters are likable, not even lessa, although she's at least tolerable. The pacing was very slow, and it took an awfully long time for anything to really happen.

I have serious misgivings about it being a factory produced product. Very amateur. Which saddens me since she wrote so much. Mccaffrey has such an allergy to info dumps.

Author uses narrative subterfuge to confuse gullible readers. Bizarre strings of code in place of apostrophes. Sentences contain commas that separate 2 thoughts or subjects that shouldn't even be in the same book together.

Quality


I fell in love almost instantly with the rich characters and their interactions with each other


Her son todd mccaffrey is doing such a marvelous job with the series also


But sticking with the book it becomes less confusing and is well worth the read

Price


Mccaffrey is one of the original and best world builders
