Reviews
"The torch has been passed and burns more brightly than ever in this latest chapter of the venerable Pern saga, the first of what one hopes will be many solo efforts by the son of series creator Anne McCaffrey. . . . This stand-alone tale fits beautifully into the existing history and style of earlier books while still breaking new ground." Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Todd McCaffrey does something I didn't think anyone could do: he writes Anne McCaffrey's Pern. . . . This is Pern, in the hands of a new master-grade harper, carefully trained in the old traditions, but scoring his own ballads. May the saga continue!" David Weber, author of By Schism Rent Asunder "A dramatic, thoroughly captivating tale, steeped in the lore and well-drawn characterizations of the people and the dragons for which the Pern novels are prized. Fans old and new will be delighted." Booklist "Todd McCaffrey has inherited his mother's storytelling ability. His dragons and fire-lizards, his harpers in Harper's Hall, carry on the great traditionsand add much to them. Huzzah, Todd! You have learned wisdom indeed."

Synopsis
The specter of sickness looms over the Weyrs of Pern, felling fire-lizards and threatening their dragon cousins, Pern's sole defense against the deadly phenomenon that is Thread. Fiona, the young rider of queen dragon Talenth, is about to assume the duties of a Weyrwoman when word spreads that dragons have begun succumbing to the new contagion. As more dragons sicken and die, Weyrleader B'Nik and queen rider Lorana comb Fort Weyr's archives in a desperate search for clues from the past that may hold the solution to the plague. But could the past itself prove the pathway to salvation for Pern's imperiled dragons? Guided by a mysterious ally from a wholly unexpected place, and trusting in the dragon gift for transcending time, Fiona will join a risky expedition with far-reaching consequences for both Pern's future and her personal destiny.

  • Not a particularly exciting read

    Todd McCaffrey seems to be filling in the empty spaces on the time/space map of Pern history. It seems as if several of his books have taken secondary characters, or ones that are mentioned in passing in his mother's books, then fills in their story in a voice that is similar to his mothers, but perhaps because of the constraints placed on him as an author by the major timeline, without much punch. This had way to many "I'm blurry because I must already be in this time" moments to make the faithful series reader consider what they have already read in an earlier volume. Not bad, but not really moving either.

  • Dragonrider Series

    I have enjoyed many years of reading about the dragonriders of Pern. I've re-read some of them many times. Thank you McCaffreys.

  • Dragonheart by Anne McCaffrey, Todd J. McCaffrey

    As a long time Pern Dragon lover, the new books written by Anne and Todd fill in the gaps betwen Dragonsdawn and the Dragonriders of Pern. eBay has allowed me to finally own a complete set of all the Dragons of Pern books. Comparing cost and shipping as well as condition has encourged me to fill in the gaps of my Pern Collection.

  • Excellant, just like his Momma

    I had no idea there were any more Pern books out there. Well, the apple didn't fall far from the tree, great book. Will read them all. Thanks Todd McCaffrey
