Oh, another Pern book reader! I hope you liked it! Are you good to read more?
I'm already on the second one :) Have you read them all, Cherie?
Yes, I read them all. Many of them - over and over again until the books fell apart. My first book was The White Dragon. At the time that it was released, it was the first book. I bought the first paperback edition. You have many years of great reading ahead! I was a huge fan of the author from middle school on. She wrote so many great series!
