I know. And hell, now that N'ton's been recruited, F'nor's lost the only plot significance he actually had. This would be forgivable if I thought the book actually intended to focus on Brekke's recovery, and his role in it, but somehow I doubt that.

But F'lar and Lessa are amazing, and their flaws so complementary, that I can't help but love them even though I have serious issues with lots of Dragonflight.

And F'lar would agree with you about the grubs!
