HA, yes. I read the Menolly books as a kid, the first...two? Where there just two? And i loved her all tough and running away and having wee dragons all to herself.

But then she got older and got stupid. *sigh*

But i still have some fond memories of those books.

Those books got me into McCaffrey! I was having a very rough pre-adolescence when I got into those books, and they were so, so important to me.
The third one was about her friend Piemur. But there was a Menolly/Sebell sex scene on a boat, IIRC.
Someone should make a harper hall miniseries. It could be terrible, and I would still watch it.

YES! Me too. My sister was way into the Pern stuff so i started reading those because of the cover art, and loved 'em. Piemur sort of irritated me - i didn't want to read about some dumb boy!

But then i was reading the ones with Ruth the white dragon and them discovering the buried...uh...not spaceship but building or whatever? Realizing they had been in space once? That was neat.

I always bothered me that it didn't take them very long to go from spacemen to people who had slaves (drudges). Very weird and kind of ooky.

That's why I preferred the Dragonsdawn book. I think she established a lot in the first short story and novel that was very dystopic and feudal and didn't fit the tone she wanted for the later books. Compare the beginning of Dragonflight with The Masterharper of Pern and you wouldn't believe it's the same planet.
Anyway all of McCaffrey's books are about a priviledged class of people that knows better and overcome the ignorance of the common folk. Either born psychic or born a feudal lord, it was always pretty skeevy.

It's been like 15 years since I was into McCaffrey, but apparently I am still ready to nerd out at the slightest provocation. My apologies for the length!

Aw, no worries! I think it's cool that people can still be fannish and geeky over things from their childhood/teen years. I still re-read the Menolly books from time to time, they're still fun.

I think the only stuff of hers that i've read *is* the Pern stuff. Most everything else didn't really appeal to me. I was happily reading Fritz Leiber and Michael Moorecock (Elric!) and Larry Niven.
