NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Even though Lorana cured the plague that was killing the dragons of
Pern, sacrificing her queen dragon in the process, the devastating
disease has left too few dragons alive to fight the fall of deadly
Thread. As morale at Telgar Weyr plunges in the wake of the widespread
loss, and Weyrwoman Fiona and the harper Kindan struggle to keep hope
from vanishing, a pregnant Lorana decides she must take drastic steps.
Nothing short of manipulating time itself will undo the damage done by
the plague. But attempting time travel could have devastating
consequences--altering history, and destiny, forever. Now, somehow,
Lorana must find a way to accomplish what seems impossible: bending the
natural laws of the universe without wreaking havoc on existence itself.
To ensure the future of Pern, she's willing to take the fateful
chance--even if it demands yet another, far greater, sacrifice.
