Dragonflight
2 journalers for this copy...
This is the actual cover art.
From the Back Cover:
The men who rode the dragons were a breed apart. Chosen when the dragons were first hatched, they became soulmates for life with the huge, magnificent beasts they controlled - the green, blue, brown and bronzes - beautiful - terrible - the only creatures who could defend the planet Pern from the blood-red star. But without the Queen, the dragons would become extinct. Only the gigantic, golden Queen could breed the new flights. And the Queen was fading...dying...leaving behind one last, huge, golden egg.
DRAGONFLIGHT is the first book in Anne McCaffrey's world-famous Chronicles of Pern.
This is a re-read, yet again. I read and re-read the whole series many times over as a teenager and loved it to pieces. Every now and then I read one of them again, mostly for nostalgic value
