Narration During Books The Chronicles of Pern: First Fall (Pern #12)

Here are five gripping episodes of early Pern -- from the very first space survey recommending colonisation, to the last, where the early world, its young dragon culture undetected, is condemned to be isolated in space.

Here is the saga of the mass evacuation from the volcanic southern continent, an entire group of people moved across the dangerous seas, guarded and guided by a flotilla of dolphins. Here, too, is the story of the creation of Ruatha Hold -- a mammoth undertaking in the early days of Pern.

And here is one of the most fascinating dragon tales ever written by Anne McCaffrey, when Fort Weyr was the only weyr, and when dragonriders and dragons were overcrowded to danger point. As the news broke of three fresh weyrs to be established, a young girl, Torene, came to realize that her dragon could be the next Queen of the newly formed Benden Weyr.

Weigh Up About Books The Chronicles of Pern: First Fall (Pern #12)

2015 audiobook re-readI'd probably go with a 3.5 with this one. The entire anthology of novellas had lovely stories about the first settlers of Pern, but it was a bit jarring listening to some of the characters without the accents that they had in the previous book that was narrated by a male, this book being narrated by a woman.Still, Pern is a nice world to escape to.

12th Pern story in publication order. Short stories.

I really enjoyed these short stories. In the end, I feel Dolphin's Bell could have been shorter and Survey could have been longer. Second Weyr could have possibly been longer too. Just because I wouldn't have minded seeing some more of Torene and Mihall, and how they got their weyr up and running. I would also have enjoyed seeing Sorka and Sean's reactions to their son getting Benden Weyrleader. I loved the Sorka/Sean moments in Second Weyr they were sweet and just made me enjoy them more.

A collection of short stories/novellas that expand on the early history of Pern. Some of the history is fun and a great display of McCaffrey's verdant imagination but a couple of the stories are overly long and not particularly interesting. This was a reread. I hadn't read it since first buying it years ago. It's not a bad book by any means but it will not retain a place in my permanent library.

Chronicles of Pern: First Fall isn't a full novel, it's a collection of five short stories about the early days of Pern, during the first generations after they landed. It's a snapshot of early history on Pern and also connects to things that happened off-planet. I enjoyed each of these stories, but I think The Second Weyr was my favorite. The first covers the original survey team who visited Pern and declared it fit to be colonized. Expressing some of the problems they had on their mission and

These five short stories that fill in the gaps of the early Pern years. The first story is the original survey team who came to Pern and declared it a planet worthy of settlement. Another story deals with the evacuation of Landing after the volcanic eruptions. Then there are stories about how the new settlements and weyrs are chosen in the North. The final story is about the rescue of a few settlers that didn't make it to the North but had been stuck in the south without dragon help during
