Read these books all the time as a kid. Haven't read them in 20+ years but whenever I see something floating down from a tree I think "The Threads are here!"

Likewise, Anne McCaffrey is a GM scifi author. These books were great because most of them were Fantasy, however, if you delved deeper into the stories, it turned out to be a Scifi Epic!

Can you read just these 3 and legitimately stop, or is it ongoing for the next 20-ish books?

Same here! I love this series.

And yes you can stop at the 3, but you will not want to!

I've got a ton of free ebook credits from Christmas no rush shipping. Why not. Thanks OP.

I was a sci-fi book club member back in the day and got all of the Dragonrider books - they were that good. Extremely well detailed and written. I still have the books in storage containers, now this makes me want to re-read them during my morning and evening commutes. Excellent story-telling.

Thanks for the book tip. I don't think I would read this more than once. I found it available on Libby with no wait so I will just borrow it from the library.

Been awhile but I believe these three are a complete story but the story does continue after these. This is one of those series that covers thousands of years and there are series and stand aloned spread out over those thousands of years, in the timeline these are near the end. These are generally considered the ones to start with.

I thought this sounded familiar. I got this ebook for the same price in 2014.

Me too! I moved recently and realized I'm actually missing a few volumes. But that's what I used to spend my allowance on lol

You can definitely stop after these three - they form a pretty complete storyline. There's a lot of additional books that take place in the same world, but I never felt that any of them lived up to the first trilogy.
