Dragon's Time

by Anne McCaffrey, Todd McCaffrey Narrated by Emily Durante

Overview

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.

Editorial Reviews

SEPTEMBER 2011 - AudioFile

Emily Durante makes the most of a plot that is slow, complex, and without much suspense. She maintains a steady pace and creates a feeling of intimacy between the dragons and their riders. The story picks up where the last in the series left off; the dragons have been saved from a deadly plague but are now too few in number. Something must be done to prepare Pern for the next threadfall. The primary device for trying to resolve the dramatic situation is time travel. Durante makes subtle adjustments in the characters’ tones as they come across each other (and sometimes themselves) at different ages. J.E.M. © AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine
