In this video, we dive into a science fiction classic with a fantasy edge. The Dragonriders of Pern series was written by Anne McCaffrey. There are over twenty books in the series focusing on the residents of the planet Pern as they use native wildlife in the form of firebreathing fire-lizards, also known as dragons, to fight an invasive alien menace known as thread.

Chat gpt did fairly well on this overview to a point. It does fall short on describing the full series in several ways. Renegades of Pern is but a single novel in a series of 24 books written primarily by Anne McCaffrey however her son Todd McCaffrey has co-written and solo authored several titles in the series, tho his books are generally set in the Third Pass several hundered years after Dragonsdawn and about 1,000 years before Dragonflight. Througout the course of Pern's publication we're given stories set in multiple eras hundreds of years apart. The coverage on Dragonsdawn, and the First Trilogy and the Harper Hall trilogy was generally accurate and the accompanying visuals works pretty well with the tone and vibe of Pern overall. Ultimately just glad to see more Pern related media being put out so thanks for making this.

Thanks! I don't see too much appreciation for Pern these days. I decided to give it a shot to test the possibilities of AI-generated video. I used a tiny bit of my own script to inform the video but the visuals don't always work. Some of the pronunciation is off too. But I will return to explore Pern without AI later.

@@FleetAdmiralLevi AI when applied to Pern sort of feels world appropriate due to AIVAS being such a part of things in All the Weyrs of Pern. I'd thought for a while that it'd be wonderful to have an AI emulation of Anne's own voice, but at the moment that seems to be seen as an inappropriate thing to do, tho I personally think Anne would get a kick out of it.

@@braendyn Very true. I'd hope to get to explore the other concepts in the Pern series. My entry point was Dragonsdawn. It was the second novel I ever bought with my own money. I'd like to do for Pern what Quinn's Ideas did for Dune. Maybe with time.

@@FleetAdmiralLevi Same inflection point for me. Dragonsdawn was my first venture into Pern and with the Eragon series coming from Disney and the success of Httyd I think there's some hope for it someday recieving it's proper place in pop cultural significance. Are you familiar with the yt channel "Between two Perns"?
