Dragonseye : Dragonriders of Pern : Book 15

It's been two-hundred years since the deadly Thread fell like rain upon Pern, devouring everything in its path. No one alive remembers that first horrific onslaught and no one believes in its return--except for the dragonriders. For two centuries they have been practicing and training, passing down from generation to generation the formidable Threadfighting techniques. Now the ominous signs are appearing: the violent winter storms and volcanic eruptions that are said to herald the approach of the Red Star and its lethal spawn. But one stubborn Lord Holder, Chalkin of Bitra, refuses to believe--and that disbelief could spell disaster. So as the dragonriders desperately train to face a terrifying enemy, they and the other Lord Holders must find a way to deal with Chalkin--before history repeats itself and unleashes its virulence on all of Pern.

  • "On the planet Pern, two farseeing dragon riders train their troops--mounted on genetically engineered dragons--for the battle with the Thread, an evil force. Portents of all sorts, including violent storms and erupting volcanos, point to the Thread's coming, but most of the planet prefers to ignore them, lulled into complacency by 200 years of peace."

Only the dragons, originally created to be a weapon against Thread, are still around toremind people that once before their population was decimated, their hopes and dreams and livelihoods almost destroyed forever. Such a situation can never be allowed to happen again. If only a way can be devisedto warn future generations of impending Threadfall, and to instill in them an unquestioning belief in its dangers."
  • "The dragonriders must convince the leadership of Pern that the old enemy for which they have been preparing to do battle with for the last 200 years is real and presents a threat to the future of their civilization."@en
