Title: Some great elements but overall "rushed" feeling
Product review: I was ecstatic to see a new Pern book coming out and started reading the minute I got it. While I loved the development of some familiar characters I got the feeling that the book was written in a rush (possibly due to the overwhelming demand of fans like me). I enjoyed following the progression of the dragonriders from hold-beholden to more independence and would like to have had the entire book explore that. While I realize that humanity (even on Pern) has it's negative elements, the nightly news gives me enough of that - I'd rather focus on more positive aspects, or at least the human response to natural catastrophies.All-in-all, a good book and a great addition to the Pern series.
