Description Conducive To Books The Renegades of Pern (Pern (Chronological Order) #22)

As long as the people of Pern could remember, the Holds had protected them from Thread, the deadly silver strands that fell from the sky and ravaged the land. In exchange for sanctuary in the huge stone fortresses, the people tithed to their Lord Holders, who in turn supported the Weyrs, whose dragons were Pern's greatest weapon against Thread.But not everyone on Pern was part of that system of mutual care and protection, particularly those who had been rendered holdless as punishment for wrongdoing. And there were some, like Jayge's trader clan, who simply preferred the freedom of the roads to the security of a hold. Others, like Aramina's family, had lost their holds through injustice and cruelty. For all the holdless, life was a constant struggle for survival.

Then, from the ranks of the criminals and the disaffected, rose a band of renegades, led by the Lady Thella. No one was safe from Thella's depredations, and now her quarry was Aramina, reputed to have a telepathic link with dragons. But when Thella mistakenly vented her rage on Jayge's family, she made a dangerous mistake. For Jayge was bent on revenge . . . and he would never let her have the girl who heard dragons!

Judgment Out Of Books The Renegades of Pern (Pern (Chronological Order) #22)

Anne McCaffrey was one of the most significant authors of the 20th Century. To be a writer of Science Fiction Fantasy requires a significant amount of persaverance, commitment to reality, dedication to researching physical possibilities and an unfettered imagination. Anne McCaffrey excelled in all of these characteristics. She created genuine working cultures down to the smallest details with purpose and genuine imagination. This is one of the pivotal books in the Pern Series, even though it's

The Renegades of Pern is a disjointed entry in the Pern series. The time in this book covers the time in Dragonflight, Dragonquest, The White Dragon, the novella The Girl Who Heard Dragons, and the Harper Hall trilogy.Renegades reads liked a deleted scene reel. It gives some backstory, but putting it all together for its own side story doesn't work well. Because this book parallels the time in the others, it's forced to skip forward to whatever parallel plot plot is happening. Renegades focuses

I like fantasy. I really do. I'm really starting to not like this Pern series. Every time I pick up a Pern book, I sigh with reluctance. Every time I pick up a Pern book, I would rather pick up my phone to play a time wasting game like solitaire or Sudoku. I think it's the writing style. It is awfully dry. Then the plotting. The ending of the primary plot about the primary protagonist and antagonist (I think primary) was telegraphed from the very beginning, down to the weapons. Then, there is

I thought I had read all the Pern books, but I dont remember this one. This is the same time period of The Dragonriders of Pern but told from the perspective of those outside of the Weyrs, the Lord Holders, those under the Lord Holders protection and those who fell between the cracks, the holdless and those who preferred to be on their own, such as the traders.While the narrative goes in a straight line chronologically, the story jumps around from one place to another, from one persons view to

I'd give this about 3.5 stars. I still enjoy it, but for the most part Thella dragged it down. Her Pov bored me. I also didn't buy the Jayge Aramina love. He'd only seen her a couple of times before he saved her. I feel like it was almost more of a Lust that might have turned into love over the years of living together. Loved the stuff with Pieumer. I never did get to read Dragon Drums, but I've always enjoyed his character. I liked seeing the different pov's on things we'd seen in other books.

This book is a bit difficult to break down but essentially of all the Pern books in the main series this one struggles to match the others in pace and attraction. This is pretty frustrating as it contains the game changer for the dragonriders and the rest of Pern.I took a long time with this one partly because I've had less time to read and partly because the majority of this book is hard to get through. It only really picks up at the end. And does it pick up!This one is an important part of the

This story is unique in that its timeline runs parallel with several other novels in the Pern series. It has a two-fold purpose. One is to tell a new story of the trader Jayge trying to protect Aramina, the girl who hears dragons. Interwoven through their story are glimpses of important historical events taking place in Pern society which were seen in other novels, but retold this time through new eyes. At the beginning section of the novel, I was unsure how McCaffrey was going to tie in the
