By the time the three children of her marriage were comfortably in school most of the day, she had already achieved enough success with short stories to devote full time to writing. Her first novel, Restoree, was written as a protest against the absurd and unrealistic portrayals of women in s-f novels in the 50s and early 60s. It is, however, in the handling of broader themes and the worlds of her imagination, particularly the two series The Ship Who Sang and the fourteen novels about the Dragonriders of Pern that Ms. McCaffrey\u2019s talents as a story-teller are best displayed.<\/p>\n<p>She died at the age of 85, after suffering a massive stroke on 21 November 2011.<\/p>\n<p>Obituaries: <a href=\"http:\/\/locusmag.com\/2011\/11\/anne-mccaffrey-1926-2011\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Locus.<\/a><\/p><\/i><\/li>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bibliography Dragondrums From Goodreads Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts in The United States on April 01, 1926 and passed away on November 21, 2011.
