The White Dragon was the first novel I read of Anne Mcaffrey's that I read in high school and I fell in love with this and more of her series of books. She really knows how to build a story either from diving into the action right off or slowly building the intensity for the reader's interest. This actual series has quite a number of books that builds the entire society's makeup, from the environment to the rules to the why's and wherefores of the civilization's structure, government, and people in g general. I love all of j her series, never being let down in my expectations

If you've never read about dragons or read Anne McCaffrey, this is the way to start. Even if you have read "Eragon" and Eldest" by Christopher Paolini, you still MUST read the Dragonrider series. They don't distract or subtract from each other - these two authors' writings complement each other. If you read this trilogy compilation, be sure to go on and read the rest of the Dragonrider books - you won't be disappointed. And what a wonderful way to renew your love of a series of books! The 1st three books of the Dragonriders of Pern series - all in one volume! It had been too long since I had read the 1st two books, so it's great to be able to read those over then go straight to the 3rd. Anne McCaffrey always was one of my favorites, and since the movie & book "Eragon" had renewed my interest in dragons (not that I ever REALLY forgot them!), I had to go back and re-read the Dragonriders series, and catch up on the ones I missed. So glad to have bought this book - now I'm looking for the rest!Read full review
I read these books about 40 years ago. I ordered this triple thinking I would enjoy them once again over the summer. Unfortunately my husband grabbed the book and hasn’t put it down since. If the book is good enough to reread 40 years later and it grabs a 70 year old man for the first time then I would say it is a can’t miss read.

This is an excellent series of books that has a fascinating blend between the borders of science-fiction and fantasy. It's well-written and a fun read. This copy is of nice quality and it's great to have one of my own finally.

The book is in good shape, and I already know I like the author and the content (I'm replacing a lost book).
