Dragonsinger: Harper of Pern

Well, it was the first book of Anne McCaffrey's I've read. People keep recomending htem to me, saying they're a lot like Eragon and Eldest. From this one, I really can't see the connection. I was very fond of the way the fire lizards were. Nine of them. Though perhaps they were a little underdeveloped as characters, bar Beauty. I don't see how there could be books about Menolly that came before though, there didn't seem much to tell. I don't know. Maybe. Still, it was good. Worth reading for sure, even if I didn't think it at all like Eragon and Eldest, bar the fact that there were people who rode on dragons, even if they weren't the main focus of the story.
