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.
