Dragonsblood

by Todd McCaffrey

ONE LINE SUMMARY: Lorana, a young dragonrider, can feel all dragons’ emotions, and when the dragons begin getting sick, she looks for a cure.

In his first solo outing in his mother’s Pern series, Todd McCaffrey has succeeded in making his work completely identical to his mother’s. The characters are so many that it took me 2/3 of the book to figure out that one of the main characters was also in Dragon’s Kin, which I had read less than 2 months ago.

The plot is still interesting, although I’ve never been fond of the “multiple timeline” layout used in this book. There really isn’t anything new in here, but hey, everyone wants a dragon, and therein lies the appeal of this series.
