Flashback SciFi/Fantasy - Dragonsong by Anne McCaffrey

Details

Let's revisit some beloved books from the past and maybe even find some we have not read that other Meetup members loved. The idea with this meetup is to read science fiction and fantasy books that we read prior to the age of 16ish. We will meet no more than once a quarter, so at most four times a year.

Let's read Dragonsong by Anne McCaffrey. I have not read this book but have been told by a member of Bookaholics that it is a good one so let's check it out.

"...For centuries, the world of Pern has faced a destructive force known as Thread. But the number of magnificent dragons who have protected this world and the men and women who ride them are dwindling.

As fewer dragons ride the winds and destruction falls from the sky, Menolly has only one to sing, play, and weave the music that comes to her so easily—she wishes to become a Harper. But despite her great talents, her father believes that a young girl is unworthy of such a respected position and forbids her to pursue her dreams. So Menolly runs away, taking shelter in a cave by the sea. Miraculously, she happens upon nine fire lizards that could possibly save her world...and change her life forever."

NOTE: Current plan is to meet in person at a local restaurant. This could change to online based on attendee feedback.

Suggestions for what to read and where to meet are welcome and highly encouraged!
