This image shows a vintage 1980s copy of the science fantasy novel The White Dragon by Anne McCaffrey, published by Corgi Books. The cover illustration by David Fairbrother Roe. This is the book and book cover that entertained me on 27 hour flight. I always used to travel with it because I knew I could reread it during a trip so it was worth lugging it around with me.

Anne McCaffrey wrote so many of my favourites, but I’ve probably reread The White Dragon from the Pern series the most. I’m always drawn to rich world-building and character arcs that make you want to stay a little longer. #AnneMcCaffrey #TheWhiteDragon #ScienceFantasy #BookSky

I'm binging the #Pern stories, after a hiatus of about six years.

I'm stunned to realize just how much happened in the first 3 published stories #Dragonflight #DragonQuest #TheWhiteDragon that I thought came in later books.

#RenegadesOfPern or #AllTheWeyrsOfPern next?

#pjwolfrereads #TheWhiteDragon The bond of a rider and dragon can be very close. And yet, would a dragon willingly kill themselves to achieve some goal their rider has? I do wonder about it, especially with seeing T'kul take his old, old dragon to try to mate with a much younger queen

#pjwolfrereads #TheWhiteDragon Things sure are happening

So thanks to his little egg caper, Jaxom missed in real time the hatching of the queen egg he rescued. A few days later, the rest of the eggs are due to hatch, and Jaxom is pushed to not miss this one. While not saying he stole the egg back.

#pjwolfrereads #TheWhiteDragon This is a... weird book. It feels like the beginning is catching up to other exciting stories. Menolly has ALREADY Impressed her 12 fire lizards, and something alluded to in the previous book has happened off screen.

Anyway. I suppose I'll start tomorrow on #TheWhiteDragon
