The beautiful planet Pern seemed a paradise to its new colonists--until unimaginable terror turned it into hell. Suddenly deadly spores were falling like silver threads from the sky, devouring everything--and everyone--in their path. It began to look as if the colony, cut off from Earth and lacking the resources to combat the menace, was doomed. Then some of the colonists noticed that the small, dragonlike lizards that inhabited their new world were joining the fight against Thread, breathing fire on it and teleporting to safety. If only, they thought, the dragonets were big enough for a human to ride and intelligent enough to work as a team with a rider.... And so they set their most talented geneticist to work to create the creatures Pern so desperately needed--Dragons! Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram.

Synopsis

Dragonsdawn is a science fiction novel in the Dragonriders of Pern series by Anne McCaffrey. It was first published in 1989. While the Dragonriders of Pern series is recognized as science fiction (due to its origin discussing the nature of the star Rukbat and its planetary system), many of its elements in the earlier books were primarily fantasy in origin. Dragonsdawn clearly establishes the science fiction nature of the series by defining the science behind Anne McCaffrey's dragons.
