I need new stuff to read.... by Lab Rat2009-04-10 12:53:46
  Anne McCaffrey, Dragonriders of Pern series by jaqie2009-04-10 13:01:21
    But IMO... by werehatrack 2009-04-10 14:02:08
about a half dozen of them from the beginning of the series is about the right amount. After a while, a certain amount of formulaic nature takes hold, and then (in what I have always viewed as an attempt to fix some of the problems and break out of the mold that had come to dominate the books) the whole thing takes a turn that is jarring from my point of view.

Or, if the flavor of the first few isn't to your taste, then jump *ahead* to the last three or four.

One thing that I will say for McCaffrey is that she's pretty good at making books able to stand on their own without needing their predecessors to prop them up.
