Order of Anne McCaffrey Books

Anne McCaffrey (1926-2011) was an American-Irish author renowned for her contributions to science fiction, fantasy, and planetary romance. She is most famous for her Dragonriders of Pern series and the novel The Ship Who Sang. The inspiration for her notable work, Restoree, stemmed from her observations of how women were depicted in science fiction, often relegated to roles where men fought the aliens; thus, she aimed to create a more formidable female protagonist. McCaffrey received numerous awards for her writing and was inducted into the Science Fiction Hall of Fame in 2006. She passed away at the age of 85 due to a stroke. McCaffrey began her writing career with short stories in the 1950s, and her first published novel, Dragonflight, was released in 1968. Below is a list of Anne McCaffrey’s books in the order of their original publication (as well as in chronological order):
