Query: Very disappointing

I've read most of the other reviews and the negative ones really say it all for me. Todd is not his mother (regretfully) and I truly wonder where his mother was while he was writing this disjointed and sad story? Perhaps she's not comfortable editing his work. In any case, unless Todd develops better writing skills the Pern saga will end. Thread couldn't defeat Pern but Todd just might do the job.
