"The Harper Hall trilogy is probably the best set of books in the Pern series. Menolly and Piemer are two of my favorite characters especially with Masterharper Robinet. I really enjoy how this book and the others don't focus as much on the dragons, but on other characters on Pern. "

    " This book was disappointing. It is clearly intended for a young audience, and maybe for them it works out, but I found it too trite. The main character honestly needed to be more flawed. "
