The time has come to travel the skies and time of Pern!
We are excited to introduce the pre-order for Dragonflight by Anne McCaffrey. It is a classic, a foundation to the genre and a book that has influenced many of today’s writers. Here is more about it:
“On a beautiful world called Pern, an ancient way of life is about to come under attack. Lessa is an outcast survivor—her parents murdered, her birthright stolen—a strong young woman who has never stopped dreaming of revenge. But when an ancient threat reemerges, Lessa will rise—upon the back of a great dragon with whom she shares a telepathic bond more intimate than any human connection. Together, dragon and rider will fly, and Pern will be changed forever.”
As you can see from the title and description, I needed an artist who could capture dragonkind in all its wonderment and strength. I didn’t have to look far for Todd Lockwood. He is known for his dragons, we work well together, and he was excited at the prospect of visiting Pern. And with Anne’s son Todd contributing a new introduction for the book, this double-signed edition is sure to find an honored spot on shelves everywhere.
Here are links to our two editions:
- $400 Lettered Edition (only one person customer)
- $100 Limited Edition (don't forget to order the slipcase too on the same receipt!)
This will publish first quarter of 2021. We can’t wait for you to return to Pern! Or visit it for the first time!
If you have any questions, do let us know! We are always here!
