I've read many sci-fi stories but this is the first I've read that expresses the idea of a sentient planet. This sequal to " Powers that Be " plays with ideas and blends native american belifs with adventure and wild stories. Yanaba is a strong character and you feel as if she's your best friend. Clodgah Senunkut is the most caring person I've come across in my reading.Bunny, Diego and 'Cita are great compliments to the story. And Sean gives Yanaba a love so strong it makes your tears come to your eyes. Anne McCaffrey is a master in her element and truly knows what she's doing.

I absolutly loved this book, it was one of those books you just can't put down. Its plot was stable and developed well, and was easy to follow. On a whole, I enjoyed the book and I can't wait to read the next one!

i personally loved this series. maybe its because i could relate to the story more easily than to a world of dragons, not that i didnt love the Dragonriders of Pern. however, Petaybee was different. I absolutely loved the series, although sometimes the plot is a little shakey and some parts of the story dont match others.

This booke takes up where powers that be ends. It is a good story about a community that pulls together to make the best of a hard life. They have found out it does not take riches to have a good life or to find someone to love.
It is a uplifting tail of a town that welcomes everyone even the people that they think means them harm and how they win most of them over.
The planet that lives and how it cares for everyone and how if protects its own.

another great book...all McCaffrey's books are great and all get 4 to 5 stars from me. You cant miss when you buy any of her books.......I love them all
My favorites are the Dragon and the Companion books, though. But all keep you interested to the end.

Had to give this one a minimal rating to balance out the other reviewer. If that individual thought this was a gripping and emotionally powerful book, they must be 12 years old, or extraordinarily poorly-read. The plot development is clunky, the morality is ham-fisted, and the characters are one-dimensional. This is NOT McCaffrey's best work. In fact, it's the worst McCaffrey I've ever read. Do not buy this series. If you must try it, borrow it from your local public library.
