The first novel in the legendary and magical New York Times bestselling dragonriding series, “a masterpiece of adventure, intrigue, and romance” (Danielle L. Jensen), from Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author Anne McCaffrey
“Anne McCaffrey’s Pern novels are truly foundational books; it’s hard to imagine the modern-day landscape of fantasy and science fiction without them.”—Naomi Novik, author of the Temeraire series
On a beautiful world called Pern, Lessa is an outcast survivor—her parents murdered, her birthright stolen—a fierce young woman who has never stopped dreaming of revenge. That is, until an ambitious young dragonrider, F’lar, offers her something even greater: the chance to lead Pern at his side by Impressing a golden dragon with whom she will share a telepathic bond more intimate than any human connection. Although there is also her intense relationship with F’lar himself.
But Lessa’s fierceness and courage will be put to the test when an ancient scourge returns to the land: a deadly silver spore that falls from the sky, destroying all it touches. Only dragons can fight this Thread, and there are not enough dragons to protect all of Pern. Lessa and her dragon may hold the key to their world’s salvation . . . but executing her daring plan may be costlier than she ever envisioned.

DRAGONFLIGHT • DRAGONQUEST • THE WHITE DRAGON
"The poems are refreshing. Ambient. Mysterious . . . With language both tempered and ecstatic, Allen gives us a book steeped in the salt of old ports, the bite of memory, and the unexpected warmth of the now." -Matthew Lippman, award-winning author of We Are All Sleeping with Our Sneakers On
This is a place you never hear about in America...
A unique American collection of poetry, Whaling Town explores the rough work of self-realization and the roots that anchor us to the unsteady ground of our past.
Facing a turning point in his life, David Parker Allen began traversing the landscape of the United States, researching and writing music and assembling the bones of a collection of poetry. His journey led him through a personal family immigrant story in New Bedford, Massachusetts-the whaling town Melville made famous-to small communities across the Mississippi Delta and deep South, Gulf Coast, and Mountain West, as well as the streets of Chicago and New York. Jumping from rural America to urban hubs and back, Whaling Town tells a story of place and people in a gritty world that's both in and out of our control.
With clear-eyed observations and gentle musicality, Allen takes stock of the burden of our collective history and looks directly into passing storms that we each must face alone. When the skies clear, how do we come to terms with self and our place in this world, and what do we build from the wreckage?

Moral Courage in the Shadow of the Third Reich.
In a Bavarian village gripped by Nazi tyranny, an American priest's faith will be tested like never before.

It’s time for a Medieval dragonrider to fix the modern world.
Six-hundred years ago, Genevieve Beaufont stole a dragon egg and buried it. Now it’s time for that egg to finally hatch. It’s time for Gen Beaufont to be the rebel she always dreamed of.
Gen, a resident of 15th-century England, finds herself stuck in modern day America—all because she was overly curious and followed strangers through a time travel gate.
Two things have always gotten Gen in trouble: her curiosity and defiance. But times have changed, quite literally. Those traits could save her life.
In modern times, crime is out of control. Only one person can fix it—someone who doesn’t play by the rules. Someone from the Medieval era.
Genevieve was one of the first Beaufonts—the most powerful magical family to ever exist. The Founders of the House of Fourteen. The ruling forces over the magical world.
Gen always knew that she’d inherit her father’s legacy, she just didn’t know it would happen quite like this.
Can Gen Beaufont take the reins on a magical world established by her family centuries before but now entrusted to this timeless vigilante? Or will the modern world break this Medieval warrior?
