An essential companion for the books

Date of Review:  Mar 2, 2006
The Bottom Line: Anyone who loves Pern will want this book, although newcomers should beware of major (but necessary) spoilers.
Review: Reviewer's Note: This review covers the second edition, which is updated to include Renegades Of Pern through Dragonseye.

When I get around to doing a guide to Hyria, this book is definitely going to be an inspiration for the format!...
