Notes

{{notelist |notes=

{{efn |name=in-progress-after-the-fall |1=

Hans van der Boom reported 2008/09 that McCaffrey at age 82 had warned its completion may not be possible: "with recurring health problems, it is very hard to find the energy ...". (See {{cite web |title=News |url=http://www.pern.nl/ |website=The Pern Museum & Archives |publisher=Hans van der Boom |access-date=29 September 2024 |url-status=usurped |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110611120538/http://www.pern.nl/ |archive-date=June 11, 2011 |quote=Booknews: ...

• Recently (2011), regarding collaboration with Todd, Anne McCaffrey says "I still am a bit possessive when it comes to the futures of F'lar and Lessa.["After the Fall"] ... Not only have I enjoyed helping Todd wrap up this very dramatic part of Pernese history, but my own creative juices have been flowing thick and furious: I've been writing up a storm on my own, too."
