n nA new, beautifully illustrated edition of the anthology that collects some of Anne McCaffreys short fantasy and science fiction, including the title story set in the world of the bestselling Dragonriders of Pern series. n nAnne McCaffreys dragons are the stuff of which SF/fantasy legends are made. All of her dragon books have been national bestsellers. n nThe Girl Who Heard Dragons is a feast for McCaffrey fans and for all readers--a big, satisfying compilation of her fiction. Best of all, it opens with an original short novel of Pern, The Girl Who Heard Dragons, the story of Aramina, a teenage girl whose special skill does not seem likely to help solve her familys problems. They are holdless, and must constantly roam the land, trying to hide from bandits. Araminas mother fears losing her daughter completely to the life of a dragonrider, but McCaffrey has another fate in mind for her young heroine. n nRomance, humor, colorful description, and affecting characters are Anne McCaffreys hallmarks and the fifteen stories herein have these virtues in abundance. No wonder the Chicago Sun-Times described her as a master of the well-told tale. In addition, The Girl Who Heard Dragons contains twenty-four beautiful black and white drawings by award-winning artist Michael Whelan.n
