This novel suffers from an overly long and padded first 20% or so, before you actually really get to the Masterharper himself, as a y oung boy, and could mostly have been dispensed with.

The rest is more interesting, as snatches of Robinton's growing up and career are given, until his ascenscion to the top job.

He's almost a bit too good to be true, except when seen dealing with the odd spy or other.

McCaffrey as usual tends to glos sover anything remotely nasty to keep it kid friendly, but there's still plenty of charm to be found, and a it of realpolitik in dealing with the repressive and murderous Lord Holder.

The back story leading up to Lessa’s becoming Weyrwoman of Benden Weyr. Story ends with death of Fax as Ruatha Hold is liberated. The main part of the story is the growth of Robinton, his relation with his parents, and his eventual acceptance of the post of Master Harper. ( )

As a stand a lone book, The Masterharper of Pern is a well written, enjoyable story. However as the 15th or so book in the Pern universe, it unfortunately ignores the lore and framework established in the earlier books. These aren't little things but major storyline affecting continuity breaks. The book is basically written in some alternate universe where the characters and settings are familiar, but the history and relationships are different. The overall effect is that of a mary sue piece of fan fiction. ( )

Masterharper Robinton may be Anne McCaffrey's most beloved character. A truly good man, who wants the best for his people and friends. After a long wait by fans, McCaffrey finally gave us his story. Excellent! ( )

Bokomtale

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0345424603, Paperback)

In a time when the deadly scourge Thread has not fallen on Pern for centuries--and many dare to hope that Thread will never fall again--a boy is born to Harper Hall. A musical prodigy who has the ability to speak with the dragons, he is called Robinton, and he is destined to be one of the most famous and beloved leaders Pern has ever known.

It is a perilous time for the harpers who sing of Thread--they are being turned away from holds, derided, attacked, even beaten. In this climate of unrest, Robinton will come into his own. But despite the tragedies that beset his own life, he continues to believe in music and in the dragons, and he is determined to save his beloved Pern from itself--so that the dragonriders can be ready to fly against the dreaded Thread when at last it returns . . .
