More About This Book

Overview

For generations, the dragonriders had dedicated their lives to fighting Thread, the dreaded spores that periodically rained from the sky to ravage the land. On the backs of their magnificent telepathic dragons they flew to flame the deadly stuff out of the air before it could reach the planet’s surface. But the greatest dream of the dragonriders was to find a way to eradicate Thread completely, so that never again would their beloved Pern be threatened with destruction.

Now, for the first time, it looks as if that dream can come true. For when the people of Pern, led by Masterharper Robinton and F’lar and Lessa, Weyr-leader and Weyrwoman of Benden Weyr, excavate the ancient remains of the planet’s original settlement, they uncover the colonists’ voice-activated artificial intelligence system – which still functions. And the computer has incredible news for them: There is a chance – a good chance – that they can, at long last, annihilate Thread once and for all.

“When McCaffrey’s beloved dragons roar and their riders soar upon the beasts’ mighty backs...fans of Pern will likely be enthralled.” – Publishers Weekly

The anxiously-awaited, thrilling resolution to the Pern adventures that began with The White Dragon. Generations of dragonriders have dedicated themselves to fighting Thread, the deadly spores that rain from the sky. And now aremarkable discovery is about to wipe out Thread forever. 8 weeks on The New York Times bestseller list.

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
The dream of generations of Dragonriders draws within reach as, with the aid of an intelligent computer, the possibility of destroying the devastating phenomenon known as ``Thread'' becomes a reality. Having exposed Pern's civilization to technology in Renegades of Pern ( LJ 10/15/89), McCaffrey proceeds with her customary skill and humor to explore all the ramifications of culture shock. Despite some weaknesses in plot and an odd notion of time travel, the latest novel in a popular series will not lack for readers. Especially for libraries owning the previous Pern titles.
School Library Journal
YA-- AIVAS, the Artificial Intelligence Voice Address System that was a part of the original colonists' settlement, is unearthed on the Southern continent after having been buried for generations. This latest volume in the Pern saga deals with the reactions of the various lords, dragonriders, and craftsmen as they realize the impact the artificial intelligence will have on their culture and traditions. With its help, F'lar, Robinton, Lessa, Menolly, and all of the other characters YAs have come to care about devise a risky plan to eliminate a serious threat to their environment. While All the Weyrs of Pern is not as tight and exciting as the earlier dragonrider books, it is a well-written novel that's sure to appeal to McCaffrey's many fans.-- John Lawson, Fairfax County Public Library, VA

    What a ride! (a-dragonback)

    This book is truely one of the best books I have read. For me, it was a definite climax to the Dragonrider's series--and well worth working your way toward if you're starting the series. There's so much adventure, so much humor (those dragons and firelizards can be very silly), and so much triumph. This is truely a must read in the literature world.

    This was definately my favorite Pern book so far! If was mostly about Jaxom and Ruth but also had Robinton Lessa and F'lar as main characters! From the beginning it goes with a lot of action!

    PERN RULES

    this book was amazing i just got it and couldn't put it down. I can't imagine finding a machine like Aivas & changing your whole way of life and going in space!The ending was sad but it was for a good reason (i won't say what happened b/c that might spoil it so i won't say anything)

    Magical World of Pern

    This book set me to collect all the rest of the Pern books.I then just had to read Dragonsdawn to know the beginning and of course The White Dragon too. Annie McCaffrie combined science fiction with fantasy in such a brilliant way - that it sets us thinking that this easily can be a possible future and we can really bioengineer - dragons and dolphins with telepathic abilities

    One of the Best

    This is one of the best of Ms. McCaffery's books. There is no more to say. I would have given it a 4 star if it wasn't for that everything seemed to go their way and there was never a hidden secret or something that makes many books good. Still, this is one of my favorite in the series

    All the Weyrs of Pern

    This book is really interesting though harder to follow than Anne McCaffrey's other books. About half way through I had an idea of what was going to happen (if I said what it would ruin the book) but the ending still had me in tears. Be sure to read the other Pern books about the ninth pass (Dragonflight; Dragonquest; The white dragon, and the Harperhall books are helpful) before reading this one, or the series will be ruined for you!
