A review by beaundarrows
Dragonsblood by Todd McCaffrey

4.0

While this one was very interesting, some of the scientific stuff seemed like it was there just to make a point of itself. By which I mean it was mostly unnecessary and way too technical. It's like Anne and Todd were trying to prove exactly how in depth their knowledge of this world is: they've gone so far as to figure out dragon genetics, down to their own version of DNA. I get that these dragons are biological creations - that's part of the awesomeness of the world of Pern. I just don't know if all that jargon was strictly required in order to tell the story Todd wanted to tell.

Either way, these books will be the death of me. Most likely I'll have a salt deficiency from all the crying. So many moving and heartbreaking scenes. But joyful scenes also.

4 out of 5.
