Del Rey March 22, 1993 0-345-38491-1 / 9780345384911 Paperback Near Fine
"A treat for long-time McCaffrey fans, a good read and a satisfying look at one of the most haunting facets of the crystal singers' profession." LOCUS When Killashandra Ree joined the mysterious Heptite Guild, she knew that she would be forever changed. Crystal singing brought ecstasy and pain, near-eternal life...and gradual loss of memory. What she hadn't counted on was the loneliness she felt when her heart still remembered what her mind had forgotten. Fortunately, someone still cared enough to try to salvage what was left of Killashandra's mind. But she would have to learn to open herself--to another person, and to all her unpleasant memories.

McCaffrey, Anne Nerilka's Story
Del Rey January 12, 198 0-345-33949-5 / 9780345339492 Paperback Very Good
This slight addition to McCaffrey's dragon novels is about a minor characte r mentioned in Moretta, Dragonlady of Pern (Ballantine, 1983). Nerilka, the plain and ignored oldest daughter of Lord Tolocamp, is appalled when her f ather abandons her mother and sisters to the plague spreading from Ruatha H old, then refuses aid to anyone else on the rest of Pern. Nerilka first sen ds medicines secretly, then sets off (in disguise) for Ruatha, a place she had long wished to visit but had always been prevented from going. There sh e finds acceptance both for her healing skills and for herself, and she fal ls in love with the seemingly unattainable Alessan, Lord of Ruatha. This il lustrated novella, about the size of a paperback, is not the best of McCaff rey, but it does have an interesting heroine and will satisfy McCaffrey's l egions of fans who want to know why Alessan married so shortly after the de ath of his beloved Moretta.

McCaffrey, Anne The City Who Fought
Baen April 1, 1994 0-671-87599-X / 9780671875992 Paperback Very Good
This space adventure further develops McCaffrey's vivid future universe of diversified cultures, technological wonders and twisted, sometimes corrupt, politics. Space Station SSS-900C, a profitable but out-of-the-way trading and mining center, is attacked by Kolnari, pirates from a planet of sociopa thic exiles. While awaiting the arrival of the Central Worlds' Navy, the in habitants play for time with a major deception planned by Simeon, the shell person operating the station, whose hobby is the study of early warfare, in cluding guerrilla tactics. (Shellpeople, damaged while young by accident or birth defect and encased in life-support systems, are wired into and contr ol sophisticated technology such as space stations, cities and spaceships, while maintaining their own personalities and emotions.) Central to the sch eme is obedience to all the Kolnari's demands while keeping secret the fact of Simeon's existence, since if the Kolnari gained control of the technica lly sophisticated shellperson they would have an intolerable advantage. As Simeon clandestinely builds his trap for the Kolnari, he wistfully watches and encourages a love affair between Channa Hap, the woman he loves and can not have, and a noble refugee. McCaffrey (The Dragonriders of Pern series, The Ship Who Sang ) and Stirling (the Draka series) create vivid heroes and villains in a complex and deadly game.
