This month the Science Fiction & Fantasy Book Club rides the wings of a dragon to the distant world of Pern in Anne McCaffrey's Hugo Award-winning classic Dragonflight. Copies are available in a variety of formats from the library.
From the publisher:
"On the beautiful planet Pern, colonized for centuries, Land Holders and Craftsmen have traditionally tithed food and supplies to the dragonweyrs to which they are bound. In times past, the mighty telepathic dragons and their riders were the only protection from the dreaded, life-threatening Thread.
But it has been over 400 years since the last Threadfall, and some people have come to doubt that the menace will every strike again. But F'lar, rider of Pern's greatest bronze dragon, has no such illusions. The Red Star is near; Thread will fall soon."
