Dragonquest by Anne McCaffrey

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


The Science Fiction aspects begin to peek though here in the second novel of the series. But the main focus is on conflict between the Oldtimers, the Dragonriders who were brought forward in time to help deal with the threat from the thread, and the contemporary Dragonriders. So it is mostly a generational conflict, but it does help move the story along. The science fiction aspect enters when they consider the possibility of trying to eliminate the thread at its source, which is another planet in the solar system.

I have this as part of the three-volume set The Dragonriders of Pern which includes the first three novels in the series.
