When Fiona, the only surviving member of Lord Holder Bemin's
family, Impresses a queen dragon, she doesn't begin to realize the
perils and privileges that come with her new role.As she grows into
a young woman and her dragon reaches her full growth, Fiona faces
not only the possibility of losing her dragon to the sickness that
has claimed so many others but also the challenges of becoming a
Weyrwoman in her own right. What, she must ask herself, is she
willing to give up in order to become a queen rider?And, although
the marvellous queen dragon has chosen her, is she really suited to
the life of a queen rider? As the injured dragons at Fort Weyr
begin to outnumber those fit to fly against Thread, Weyrleader
K'lior comes up with a desperate plan - to send the least injured
and the older weyrlings back in time, so that they can grow strong
enough to fight Thread in the past and then returnto help the
Weyr.But will only twelve older weyrlings and thirty lightly
injured riders be enough to save Fort Weyr?Forced to stay behind
because her dragon is still too young, Fiona must confront a
life-and-death choice.
