Product Description
The first humans to settle on Pern barely noticed a distant planet in the same system. Their descendants couldn't afford such an oversight. For the orbit of that Red Star swept it close to Pern at perihelion. And when that happened, deadly silver Threads would fall through the skies of Pern, mindlessly searing all they touched. To combat these threats, the Pernese bred hugh flying beasts that would teleport themselves in an instant and destroy Threads in midair with their breath. Men and women with telepathic skills were trained to ride the dragons and their exploits gave rise to many heroic tales. Includes three of Anne McCaffrey's most beloved Pern novels: Dragonflight; Dragonquest; and The White Dragon in a single hardcover volume. 751 pages with a map of Pern and a dragondex glossary of terms.
