CrimsonInferno 35 Report post Posted November 29, 2011 This is the saddest news I have heard. I loved her worlds, writing and characters so much. She inspired me to write, got me to read and fall in love with dragons. I always wanted to meet her and tell her how much she inspired me. I was hoping she'd get to see Dragonriders of Pern on film before, well, you know. This is a great loss to literature and authors. She was and always will be the Dragon Queen and greatest fantasy-sci-fi-dragon author in all the world and forever. May her soul rest in peace and may she be blessed. Drummer, beat, and piper, blow Harper, strike, and soldier, go Free the flame and sear the grasses Til the dawning Red Star passes. I will miss you Anne. May you ride on the back of a Golden Queen forever in God's Kingdom.
