Description
For more than thirty years, Pern has conjured visions of brave men and women mounted upon the backs of dragons. As anyone knows who has been touched by the storytelling magic of Anne McCaffrey, to read of the exotic world of Pern is to inhabit itâand to experience its extraordinary dragons is to soar aloft with them and share their dazzling adventures.Now, A Gift of Dragons brings together three beloved stories and a thrilling new tale of Pern in a single volume illustrated with beautiful artwork by Tom Kidd.In âThe Smallest Dragonboy,â -Pern (Publication Order) #4.5- Keevan is the youngest dragonrider candidate, determined to impress a dragon when the next clutch of eggs hatches. But what transpires will surprise everyoneâKeevan most of all.In âThe Girl Who Heard Dragons,â -Pern (Publication Order) #8.5- a young girlâs rare ability to communicate with dragons puts her family in danger and will bring her face to face with her greatest fearsâand with her most secret desire.The âRunner of Pernâ -Pern (Publication Order) #15.5- is a girl named Tenna, who follows family tradition by delivering messagesâand who will find her destiny on the mossy traces that runners have used for centuries under the dragon-filled sky.And finally, a very special gift: an exciting new Pern adventure, published here for the first time, fresh from the imagination of Anne McCaffrey. âEver the Twainâ -Pern (Publication Order) #16.5-
