Pern

I mean I still love the interpretation of it I had as a kid but I definitely can't look at it twice without thinking of all the icky implications. And I also side-eye some of the worldbuilding and McCaffery's clear biases that I don't agree with.

Kinda sad about the situation actually.

Hrm. I thought I read some books by her when I was younger, but a quick search did not show any books she wrote about Griffons or talking horses. I've been wrong my whole life. D:

Okay, it took me way longer than I'd like to admit to realize what you were saying. For a minute I was like, there's no Griffons or talking horses in Pern????

(Telepathic Dragons by the way)

Woops, sorry for the confusion! I guess I was getting her confused with Mercedes Lackey.

DA

You might be conflating her with Mercedes Lackey? Who DOES write about both gryphons and talking horses!

OMG! That is who I am thinking of. I loved the books I read by her as a kid. I wanted a talking horse so damn much.

I struggle to read them now, even though I'm curious about her sons take in it, he seems to have some odd views according to reviews, too
