This genuine series depicts the story of one of humanity's planetary exhibitions, in pursuit of finding a new home. The Planet
Pern seemed to have provided incredible avenues of promises. All was well for those who had breathed the first gusts of fresh air after fifteen years of slumber within the capsules. A new life was ahead of them, until came the day when the skies rained with the menace, known only as the thread. The mystical fire breathing lizards – inevitably classified as Dragons based on legends and articles of fiction depicting those of the same nature – proved to be useful, but their limited numbers and size fail to sufficiently provide the adequate protection. Little are their means to defend – limited are their resources. . . And from whence they came, it is obvious to them that they can never return. . . Winner of the 1990 Science Fiction Book Club award for best novel, this book is authored that by the woman who merged the dimensions of reality and fiction. If you are a Dragon heart fan, then you will be pleased with the awesome transitions that happen as the story progresses from Dragonsdawn to the book afterwards. General Fiction readers will NOT be disappointed. This book packs the chemistry of conflict, humanity and heart wrenching drama, beautifully written and skillfully portrayed in the audio book (highly
recommended) that was published 1993. Anne McCaffrey retains that sincere and spiritual touch in her writing, most books of today lack. The Pern Series is simply one of the greatest fictions produced in our time and lacks the attention it deserves.
