Red Star Rising continues the epic saga of Pern, as the planet faces the terrifying return of Thread after two centuries of peace. With ancient knowledge lost and political tensions rising, Pern's survival once again hangs in the balance.
Violent storms, volcanic eruptions, and the ominous red star signal the imminent Second Pass of Thread a deadly threat capable of destroying all life on Pern. Weyrs and Holds struggle to prepare, but generations of lost technology and forgotten knowledge hinder their efforts.
As dragonriders train for the coming disaster, political conflict threatens to undermine unity. Lord Chalkin of Bitra refuses to cooperate, forcing the leaders of Pern to confront betrayal and power struggles at the very moment when cooperation is most critical.
This volume blends large-scale planetary danger with political intrigue, expanding the depth and complexity of the Pern universe.
Second Hand Good.
