by Anne McCaffrey (Author)

The first novel in the legendary and magical New York Times bestselling dragonriding series, "a masterpiece of adventure, intrigue, and romance" (Danielle L. Jensen), from Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author Anne McCaffrey

"Anne McCaffrey's Pern novels are truly foundational books; it's hard to imagine the modern-day landscape of fantasy and science fiction without them."--Naomi Novik, author of the Temeraire series

On a beautiful world called Pern, Lessa is an outcast survivor--her parents murdered, her birthright stolen--a fierce young woman who has never stopped dreaming of revenge. That is, until an ambitious young dragonrider, F'lar, offers her something even greater: the chance to lead Pern at his side by Impressing a golden dragon with whom she will share a telepathic bond more intimate than any human connection. Although there is also her intense relationship with F'lar himself.

But Lessa's fierceness and courage will be put to the test when an ancient scourge returns to the land: a deadly silver spore that falls from the sky, destroying all it touches. Only dragons can fight this Thread, and there are not enough dragons to protect all of Pern. Lessa and her dragon may hold the key to their world's salvation . . . but executing her daring plan may be costlier than she ever envisioned.

Don't miss the original trilogy from Anne McCaffrey's beloved Dragonriders of Pern series:
DRAGONFLIGHT - DRAGONQUEST - THE WHITE DRAGON

Front Jacket

HOW CAN ONE GIRL SAVE AN ENTIRE WORLD?
To the nobles who live in Benden Weyr, Lessa is nothing but a ragged kitchen girl. For most of her life she has survived by serving those who betrayed her father and took over his lands. Now the time has come for Lessa to shed her disguise--and take back her stolen birthright.
But everything changes when she meets a queen dragon. The bond they share will be deep and last forever. It will protect them when, for the first time in centuries, Lessa's world is threatened by Thread, an evil substance that falls like rain and destroys everything it touches. Dragons and their Riders once protected the planet from Thread, but there are very few of them left these days. Now brave Lessa must risk her life, and the life of her beloved dragon, to save her beautiful world. . . .
