Okay, first things first. The ARC of Dragon’s Code<\/a>\u00a0by Gigi McCaffrey is here!!!!! It arrived right before DragonCon, but I wasn’t about to bring anything that precious into such a chaotic environment. No way. So I left it at home in its protective shipping envelope, and I started reading it after I recovered from my cold. I’m about 15% in, reading slowly to savor it, because I ALREADY DON’T WANT IT TO END!!!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a genuine return to Pern, and I\u2019m loving every second of it. Plus, we\u2019re in countdown mode, people, because the actual release is THREE WEEKS FROM TODAY! I\u2019ll share more about the read next week (don\u2019t worry \u2013 no spoilers!) but in the meantime\u2026 here\u2019s a\u00a0$2.99 ebook from Anne McCaffrey to whet your appetite:\u00a0Crystal Singer<\/em>.\u00a0It\u2019s not a Pern book, but I read the whole trilogy several times and absolutely loved it!<\/p>\n

In humanity’s space-faring future, there’s a planet with extremely precious crystals that can only be harvested by hand. “Crystal singers” literally sing to the crystals while cutting them, to keep them from shattering. The best singers can make a fortune,\u00a0but there are side effects they don’t tell you about in the brochures…<\/p>\n

Watch these Gigi McCaffrey and Anne McCaffrey posts over the next few weeks for contests and giveaways as we celebrate 50 years of Pern, and other amazing McCaffrey worlds! (Hint: click on that \u201cContinue reading\u201d link!)<\/p>\n
