Ann McCaffery has been accused by Henry Chai (and probably others) of
"[writing] Harlequin Romance[s] in an SF setting."  I will not argue this
one way or the other (since I haven't read either of the panned books), but
I would like two point out that the people who avidly read the Darkover
books tend to be devotees of the Pern books too.  It would be interesting to
see McCaffery together with MZB, K. Kurtz, Diane Paxton, and Jaqueline
Lichtenburg at the same con (but I'm probably not going....).
