A review by silverhawk3799
Sky Dragons by Todd McCaffrey, Anne McCaffrey
3.0
Eagerly waited for the next book from Pern. When I cracked the cover I read that Anne McCaffrey had died. In past books it she had the better flow of story and character development over Todd. I'm happy that he'll continue the series, but he just doesn't have the same connection and ability to speak for the characters.
What I've noticed most about this series is that the books don't really stand alone. In Anne's other books set in Pern, I could pick up any book without feeling lost or that major plot is escaping me. Sky Dragons was well written and enjoyable, but it is necessary that you read (and remember) all parts of the prior books in this immediate timeline.
Overall enjoyed the book, but had I started with this series, I doubt that I would've fallen as much in love with them as I did with Anne's other books in the story.
