    Yeah..I read this early AM my time.
    I only read a couple of the Pern Dragonrider books.
    Had the first novel in the original cloth bound edition.
    Think I gave it to a friend in the UK when we emigrated to Oz.

    Like we've said before...all the great SF authors of our youth are passing away.
    Inevitable but sad.
    I hope Anne finds her dragons.

    Hardly a life cut tragically short, but still. Dang, I'll miss her.
