"The Dragonriders of Pern have dedicated their lives for generations to protect the planet of Pern from the deadly Thread. Riding astride their telepathic dragons, they fly through the air and flame the Thread before it hits the ground and destroys all life. The dream has always been to eliminate Thread completely, and now, with the help of an artificial intelligance system, they have a chance to annihilate Thread forever."
