Moreta de Pern - 1

Rate this book
Depois de O Planeta dos Dragões e O Dragão Branco, eis o primeiro volume de mais uma das maravilhosas obras de Anne McCaffrey sobre a epopeia de Pern, o mundo dos dragões, em que os homens têm de lutar contra os terríveis Fios, que de longos em longos Turnos descem da Estrela Vermelha em busca de tudo quanto é orgânico - de tudo quanto vive ali.
Moreta de Pern situa-se numa época ainda mais primitiva, durante a Sexta Passagem da Estrela Vermelha, mil e quatrocentos Turnos depois de as primeiras naves terem chegado a Pern. É a história de Moreta, a Mulher do Ninho de Fort, e da sua rainha de dragões, Orlith.
Oito Turnos antes da Passagem tudo parece correr bem em Pern - mas então os animais que no planeta substituem os cavalos e os bois começam a morrer. Pern está perante um perigo mortal - e Moreta tem nas mãos o futuro do planeta.
