Product Description: At first Killashandra Ree's ambitions to become a Crystal Singer, get rich, and forget her past, were going just as she had hoped. But after she grew wealthy, a devastating storm turned her claim to useless rock. In short order she was broke, she had crystal sickness so bad she thought she was going to die, and the only way she could be true to the man she loved was to leave him....
Science Fantasy at its best If you haven't read everything she's written, at least give it a try..... I have.....
2nd In Series I read all 3 books in one weekend. I could not put them down. Some of the most imaginative, creative storytelling, but then it is Anne McCaffrey. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys fantasy with a touch of wonder. All of Anne McCaffrey's series are enjoyable, this series takes second place only to "The Rowan" series of books.
Not Free SF Reader The problem with the whole crystal singing gig is that you can lose your mind. Here, the protagonist has other problems. After an accident mining on the planet with the good stuff she has to take a job off world.
She ends up uncovering an alien brainwashing plot, and finds someone to shag, with a few adventures along the way.
Not as good as the first book.
An enjoyable read This was a very enjoyable read. This is one of Anne's last good books. I recommend it.
Killashandra Another series to collect for my library. This is the last one I needed. Like McCaffrey's tales a lot.
