S'està carregant… Moreta: Dragonlady of Pern (1983)de Anne McCaffrey
   No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra.  Kat_books | Nov 9, 2021 |  Anne McCaffrey is the quintessential writer of fantasy books pertaining to dragons. These books are always wonderful, well written, and perfectly characterized. All of her series are great but the ones that take place on Pern are the best of all. I love Moreta but her story makes me so sad I just cannot truly enjoy her book. (  ) KateKat11 | Sep 24, 2021 | This one dragged a bit through the middle but was otherwise a pleasant enough read. ( ) dllh | Jan 6, 2021 | An air of pleasant anticipation hung so thickly over the Halls, Holds and Weyrs of Pern that it had affected even the businesslike ways of Moreta, the Weyrwoman of Fort Weyr, where her dragon, Queen Orlith, would soon clutch. Then without warning, a runnerbeast fell ill. Soon myriads of holders, craftsmen, and dragonriders were dying; and the mysterious ailment had spread to all but the most inaccessible holds. Pern was in mortal danger. For, if dragonriders did not rise to char Thread, the parasite would devour any and all organic life it encountered. The future of the planet rested in the hands of Moreta and the other dedicated, selfless Pernese leaders. But of all their problems, the most difficult to overcome was time. . . . (  ) Gmomaj | Aug 28, 2020 | Just not satisfying, and I'm trying to figure out why. It certainly was well imagined and there was plot and action, but in the end, I failed to care. What is it that hooks our caring? I am so sorry. I wanted to engage with this author and series and it just didn't happen. [After writing this, I read a review by Icarus (below) which is more reflective and better thought out than mine.:] (  ) MaryHeleneMele | May 6, 2019 | Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

An air of pleasant anticipation hung so thickly over the Halls, Holds, and Weyrs of Pern that it had affected even the businesslike ways of Moreta, the Weyrwoman of Fort Weyr. Her dragon, Queen Orlith, would soon clutch; spring had made a glorious debut; the Gather at Ruatha Hold was extremely merry; and Moreta was enjoying the attentions of Alessan, the new Lord Holder of Ruatha Hold.With only eight Turns remaining before the deadly Thread would cease to Fall, all seemed well on Pern.Then, without warning, a runnerbeast fell ill.
