Anne McCaffrey

Anne McCaffrey has an inspiring view of human nature.  In all the books of hers that I've read, humans use their minds persistently and creatively to overcome any obstacles in their way.  And not only can humans cope with anything, they manage to achieve happiness in an astounding number of cases.  Unrealistic?  No, humans can be successful and happy. 

What genre does she belong to?  I'm tempted to say science fiction, since I haven't really run into any magic or supernaturalism in her books (unless you count telepathy: she treats it like futuristic science).  However, the Pern books are about people who ride dragons, for crying out loud, so it's hard for me to rule out fantasy completely! 

I'd really like to get a set of Dragonflight, Dragonquest, and The White Dragon that match.  Mine are all different ages.  I'd also like to get a paperback copy of Pegasus in Space.  However, I do have an awesome set of the Harper Hall paperbacks.  I like Elizabeth Malczynski's dragons best!
