As has been noted all over, Anne McCaffrey has left us.
How can one mark the passage of an author? For me, a stranger to her, there’s really only one way: she lives on in her books, and so shall I reread. My wife calls for all who love Pern to read Dragonflight again in memory and honor, but for my part, I will travel to the stars with Helva as she serenades the void.
