Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

As a terrible plague sweeps Pern, a brave Harper apprentice emerges as a true hero in this satisfying third collaboration between McCaffrey mère and fils (after 2006's Dragon's Fire). The danger this time is not the deadly Thread but a virulent disease, similar to our world's 1918 influenza epidemic or the more recent outbreaks of SARS. Kindan, a young apprentice of the Harpers' Guild who's dedicated to music, education and healing, had hoped to become a dragonrider, but failed to bond with a dragon at the last hatching. Then his education and budding romance with a lord's daughter are disrupted by the epidemic, which poses a particular threat to the dragons and dragonriders who will be needed to fight the approaching Thread. The McCaffreys depict the crisis vividly, with enough detail to make the tragedy all too real and with enough hope to keep fantasy fans happy. (Dec.)

From AudioFile

Kindan feels like he's on the top of the world. Life as an apprentice at Harper Hall is good. He's friends with dragons and dragon riders, and he seems on track to go to the Bendon Weyr when he becomes a journeyman. Finally, a clutch of fire lizards is about to hatch! Then rumors of illness begin, and too soon Pern is under the pall of a dreadful plague. Susan Ericksen conveys the naïveté that helps Kindan succeed in aiding his people amid the epidemic. She picks up the pace as his exuberance moves him forward and becomes more somber as he is worn down by tending the sick and witnessing so many deaths around him.

2.0 out of 5 stars Someone please help Todd, Jan 15 2008

By	S. Quarrington (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Dragon Harper (Hardcover)

Any Pern fan could have helped Todd out of this mess if he'd just asked.

The poor book can't even be internally consistent - a plague that kills young people in their prime somehow wipes out every journeyman and master at the harper hall? Make up your mind does it kill young or old?

Knowing a plague is coming and that isolation of the Weyr is critical to survival even basic quarantine precautions are not followed? If they had quarantine procedures why not follow them.

And for heaven's sake what happened to the Healer Hall? Why on earth would a plague centred book focus on Harpers?

A critical emergency that is passed to a junior harper? Copying dusty records is more important that the people dying around you?

A shame and a shambles.

Todd - please find someone other than your mother to give you some honest feedback. The book could have been fixed - your characters were likeable and your premise a good start - but you need a lot of help with plot development.

And shame shame shame on the editors - it's your job to make sure the book is a good one.

No tension, no drama, no story - you can't sell books just because they contain dragons (well, I guess you can - but your audience is slipping rapidly away).
