Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
A much-needed update to the classic companion to Anne McCaffrey's canonical novels and numerous short stories about Pern, this book includes a few recipes, information about knitting patterns, Craft and Hold badges, and more. As a reference, it is marred by the lack of cross-referencing within the book, although there is an index, and by the lack of scales with the drawings of various animals and places. It will be invaluable to readers like me who can't recall just where they read that name before, or what Weyr a rider is from, or where that small Hold is, and it provides a useful overview of the high points of Pernese history--though it's no substitute for the pleasure of reading the stories! --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
From Library Journal
Sure to be a hit with the many fans of McCaffrey's mythical world of Pern. All sf collections will need it.-- MR
