5.0 out of 5 stars The other side of the story!, April 16, 2002

By	M. VanKempen "msy626" (Alexandria, MN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Another side story well worth reading. This is the story of the second crossing, from the Southern Continent to the Northern Continent. Jim Tillek is in charge of moving all the equipment to the north. This gives more background on the part the dolphins played in Pern's History.

To get the sull feeling of this book, make sure that you have read Dragonsdawn, as the events go together. What is nice about this story, is that there is no need to feel in the background information, as that is what Dragonsdawn is for. The story starts right where it needs to and continues on. It is really nice that we get to know Jim Tillek more. Anne did a wonderful job and the story flows rather smoothly.

A must read for Pern fans, as this gives us all more detail and more background information. A nice short story, that is wonderfully written.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, July 8, 2005

By	Samanda b Jeude (Canton, GA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Dolphins' Bell (Hardcover)

Anne McCaffrey stumbles in this mini-story about dolphins helping evacuate the original landing site on Pern after the disastrous eruption of Mt. Garben. This is really a story-fragment, not a full-fledged novella. Unlike -Nerilka's Story-, which *was* a separate novel about the lady who sooths the heartbreak of Moreta's main squeeze, -The Dolphin's Bell- requires that 1 read -Dragondawn- to understand who each character is, & why we should give a damn. This is information that simply is *not* given - &, consequently, we don't.

Don't read this unless you've got -Dragonsdawn- & the time to check out who's who.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting story based around the DOLPHINS OF PERN, August 21, 1998

By A Customer

An interesting book revolving around the time of the second crossing, and the dolphins that helped.

I had listened to this story on audio and enjoyed it very much. It details a very long and hard fought journey undertaken by humans with the help of dolphins. Read more
