A novel by Anne McCaffrey and Todd McCaffrey

For the first time in more than three years, bestselling authors Anne McCaffrey
and Todd McCaffrey, mother and son, have teamed up again to do what they do best:
add a fresh chapter to the most beloved science fiction series of all time,
the Dragonriders of Pern.

Even though Lorana cured the plague that was killing the dragons of Pern,
sacrificing her queen dragon in the process, the effects of the disease were so
devastating that there are no longer enough dragons available to fight the fall
of deadly Thread. And as the situation grows more dire, a pregnant Lorana decides
that she must take drastic steps in the quest for help. Meanwhile, back at Telgar
Weyr, Weyrwoman Fiona, herself pregnant, and the harper Kindan must somehow keep
morale from fading altogether in the face of the steadily mounting losses of
dragons and their riders. But time weighs heavily against them - until Lorana
finds a way to use time itself in their favor. It's a plan fraught with risk,
however. For attempting time travel means tampering with the natural laws of the
universe, which could drastically alter history - and destiny - forever. Or so it
has always been thought. But Lorana discovers that if the laws of time can't be
broken without consequences, it may still be possible to bend them. To ensure the
future of Pern, she's willing to take the fateful chance - even if it demands
another, even greater, sacrifice.
