Marvelously suspenseful ending!

The story picks up several years after the original series left off but don't worry if you have not read the Petaybee series, it is a great ride either way! The plot stands on it's own with some elaborate twists. McCaffrey is still a Master at her craft! Ramirez is a full cast in himself!

Well written and thoughtful.

I thought the trilogy was clear in explaining the different viewpoints of. The habitants from the company That terraformed Petabee.

Meh

The book is an okay conclusion to the story started at the beginning of the trilogy, but it lacks the impact of any of the original PTB novels. The two main child characters are too smart, too well-spoken, and don't make any mistakes. The conflicts between greedy corporation and peaceful planet-dwellers seem artificial, and unlike the first two novels in this spinoff trilogy, the grownup characters have hardly any involvement in what happens to their children. Spoiler alert: everything works out okay in the end. But you already knew that.

Narrator ruined it

I like Anne McCaffrey, and enjoyed the early Petabybee novels when I read them decades ago. The narrator on this one was so bad though, that I stopped after only 2 chapters. Not really far enough to know if the story itself was any good, because the book certainly was not.

Robert Ramirez reads the way I expect I would sound if reading aloud to a friend -- and I sure am not a professional voice or narrator!
