Anne McCaffrey was the first female fantasy/sci fi writer I ever read and as such she holds a special place in my heart. Her books are always wonderful, well written, and perfectly characterized. All of her series are great but I especially like the Crystal Singer series because of its action and clever look at the near future. (

Okay, I must have read this at least a half dozen times. I really enjoy the spunky main character of Killashandra. She kind of reminds me of my little sister. Feisty. Determined. Practical. If you enjoyed the first book, Crystal Singer, you will enjoy this one too. I also like the jabs McCaffrey takes at those who feel it is their responsibility to decide for others what is best for them. It is almost over the top with the symbolism she uses to do it, but it works in the context of this narrative. (

Ce livre tient amplement ses promesses, plus passionnant que jamais. La puissance d'évocation de Mc Caffrey est intacte, on imagine tout à fait la planète Ophtéria, ses îles paradisiaques et son régime totalitaire... Pas de doute, ce livre se dévore d'une traite !

Winters on Ballybran were generally mild, so the fury of the first spring storms as they howled across the land was ever unexpected.
