So now that I've finished the worst book ever, I'm popping back over to Pern. This time, I'm reading Dragonsinger, which is the direct sequel to Dragonsong. I've got reasonably high hopes for this on account of the fact that Dragonsong is the first Pern Novel that I actually gave a passing grade to.

Hopefully, this continues the trend.

There's not much to be said here. For once, there's no forward. I do get a nice glossary full of names, though. Mostly Harpers Hall personnel. There's a minor spoiler as to who gets what lizard, which I remember being a plot point.

It's not quite as bad as how the family trees in the Julian May's Galactic Milieu Trilogy kept spoiling which family members would die in each book, but it's a little sloppy.

So anyway, we see masters, and which field they teach, Journeymen, Apprentices, Students and hold personnel in both Fort and Half-Circle. It rounds itself off with Benden Weyr. Then we move on to Chapter One.

Since there's no prelude, we can just start )
