snarpMy definition of "Dragonriders fanfic" here being "fiction wherein people somehow mentally bond with dragons." That I can think of:
His Majesty's Dragon series, by Naomi Novik
Dragon's Blood series, by Jane Yolen
Havemercy series, by Jaida Jones and Danielle Bennett
A Song of Ice and Fire series, by George RR Martin
The Dragon Prince series, by Melanie Rawn
Guards! Guards!, by Terry Pratchett. Plus a Rincewind short story, which I’m not sure I want to count, because I remember it as being an explicit parody of Dragonriders.
Mercedes Lackey gets an honorary award for writing the series about people who magically bond with most things - horses, swords, other people, trees, their hats, the internet - but never actually with dragons.
I note that only the first two of these could, as Dragonriders generally is, be classified as sci-fi; the rest are straight fantasy. Clearly this is unbalanced. My soulbonded dragon book will be some sort of dystopian cyberpunk future thing.
