It is a perilous time for harpers. They sing of Thread, yet more and more people are beginning to doubt the return of that deadly scourge. They teach reading, writing, history, but Fax - who hates the harpers in general - is determined to keep his growing area of influence free of the learning that might sow unrest. And they extol the dragonriders, whom many view increasingly as a drain on the resources of the Holds. Now harpers are being turned away from the holds; and, worse yet, they are being derided, attacked, even beaten.
It is the climate of unrest that Robinton will come into his own. For despite the tragedies that beset his own life, he continues to believe in music and in the dragons, and is determined to save his beloved Pern from itself . . .so that the dragonriders can be ready to fly against the dreaded Thread when it at last returns!

It was great to get a view behind the curtain, into the events that forged the beloved master Harper Robinton. I am troubled however by two major issues that occur throughout this book. The first is the age of Robinton when we get to events that recognize from other Pern books his age is age is "turns" off. The other one is when this book covers events covered in other books, but from his
view, some major other players are substituted.
Todd isn’t the master his mother is, but that doesn’t excuse the editor.
Great story, bad editing

Truly an enjoyment!

The narrator is generally very good and uses a variety of voices. My only quibble is that children and adolescent boys sound a bit too whiny and are delivered with a vaguely distracting NY/NJ style accent.
Overall, highly enjoyable. I would order it again.
Generally very enjoyable, some minor flaws
