Pegasus In Space (read 12/7/11) Avoid
I love science fiction, and bad science fiction makes me very irritable. Anne McCaffrey has managed to irritate me very much indeed. It is doubly irritating because she has been so highly recommended by so many for so long and there has been so much high praise written about her after her recent death, but, in my opinion, it is all completely undeserved. Her writing is terrible, her plots are juvenile, her characters are childish and the internal consistency is nonexistent.
If you value good writing, well conceived story lines, do not bother with the writings of Anne McCaffrey.
