Summary: Hmmm. . . . .could have been better
Comment: I'm rather fond of the Pern series by Ann McCaffrey and am happy to see the story continued by her son. That said, I must say that this book does not quite live up to the same standard as his Mothers. You have a situation where tragedy strikes, a solution is presented and then....abruptly it ends on a happy note, without tying in all the little 'sub-plots' throughout the book. The storyline as well the characters need to be furthur developed and polished. Perhaps reading the original series would help. . . . . .
Rating: 5
Summary: A new chapter in Pern Lore...
Comment: ...will give fans the fix they've been longing for. McCaffrey and her son delve into the little known lore of watch-whers as the story of Kindan and Nuella unfolds. A wonderful addition to the series!
Rating: 5
Summary: Watch-whers deserved a book and finally got one!
Comment: Good book. Worth buying in paperback, not hardcover. Not one you should start your Pern reading on, but a Pern fan would enjoy this book.
Dragon's Kin is about a mine camp lead by Natalon. Natalon is trying to prove himself to the Master Miner so that his camp could be turned into an official mine.
Unfortunately, his camp is split with people having different oppinions about the camp's watch-wher.
Disaster strikes when Kindan's family dies in a cavein and gets put in Master Harper Zist's care. Eventually, Natalon expects Kindan to take his father's place as the Watch-wher keeper for the mine forcing Kindan to put his other dreams aside.
Meanwhile, a blind girl named Nuella joins the picture and makes friends with Kindan, Master Zist and a few others.
Unfortunately, this book is only 292 pages long compared with the usual 800, and I read this book in one setting.
I am definately looking forward to seeing how Todd McCaffrey develops as an author.
