I couldn't get into the Pern series when I was younger, but I was a huge fan of Piers Anthony.
His "Incarnations of Immortality" series is brilliant.

Thanks for the encouragement!
Yes, it is a full-time, permanent job, and it's put me back into the staffing & recruiting world. The salary is only $1k less than what I was making before, but since the health benefits are less expensive, it practically comes out as a wash.
I'm excited about it, but nervous at the same time. I'll admit, I'm going to miss doing the construction work. It's hard, honest work, but it just doesn't pay enough for me to make a full-time thing out of it. But, if nothing else, I was given an opportunity to learn some new things, and brush up on some old skills. It's not like framing and drywall hanging are things I can put on a resume, but heck, they're good things to know.

His "Incarnations of Immortality" series is brilliant. That's what they were called. I recall the titiles "Being a Green Mother" and "On a Pale Horse" ---excellent series. Everything else of his was too cutesy for me.
