* SeriesContinuityError: Quite a few;
** The year number got muddled when ''The White Dragon'' was published (15PP when it should really have been 13PP), and subsequent prequel books made this problem impossible to fix without messing up the chronology of the stories. The two main side-effects of this is that it means F'lessan somehow became a Candidate while two years underage, and Mirrim's Path took ''four years'' instead of two to become fully mature.
** Character names - both major and minor - frequently end up changing between books. The worst example of this happening is probably that Lord Larad's wife's name strangely changes from Dulsay to Janissary in ''All the Weyrs of Pern'' and back to Dulsay again in ''The Skies of Pern''. 
*** In a few instances, a dead character has ended up appearing in a book that takes place after their death. Lord Oterel offers his support to young Readis in ''The Dolphins of Pern'', despite a major part of the previous book dealing with people choosing his successor after his death.
