Serve It Forth: Cooking With Anne McCaffrey

Rating:
Summary: Like SF? Like cooking? Get this book!
Review: I love reading and writing, especially science fiction. I also love eating, and cooking, although I'm not a chef.
This book is an interesting look into the non-literary creative works of a group of writers compiled by Pern mistress Anne McCaffrey. None of these writers will ever be confused with James Beard or even Emeril Lagasse, but the reader does get insight into the comfort foods that keep these writers going. A good book, also, for those who think they're too busy to eat.

Summary: A mediocre sidekick that proves that writers are not chefs
Review: While my expectations for this book were never too high in the first place, I found that the "recipies" presented within are merely quick remakes of the already existing ones, sprinkled with outlandish names. If you are trying to gain insight into the nature of the writers whose recipies are compiled within, there are other ways to go about that goal.
