Book Reviews of Nerilka's Story (Dragonriders of Pern Series)
Book Review: A great read,teamed up with a good one!
Summary: 5 Stars
Nerilka's Story is a view of the events around the book Moreta: Dragonlady of Pern, but told from the view of Nerilka(our heroine, hooray!), daughter of Lord Holder Tolocamp (major baddy, boo! ).This book is tighter than the usual Dragon series, although Dragondrums and DragonSong have a similar flavour, being more closely tied with central characters also. But this one is written as if by Nerilka in a memoir form which is quite charming and much more than a 'prequel'. It stands well on its own even if you haven't read the Moreta book - I read Moreta afterwards and that was great too.
Being shorter, its nice that The Coelura is squeezed into this volume as well, but it does not stand up well in comparison with Nerilka. The plot is fair enough but has Flash Gordon sort of ambience and the society structure seems to owe much to Michael Moorcock's sci-fi-fantasy world - unintended I'm sure! Still a good read, teamed up with a great one! A worthy addition to the McCaffrey bookshelf collection.
