A science fiction classic from a master of the genre.
When AIVAS -- the Artificial Intelligence Voice Address System -- was first discovered at Landing, the entire planet of Pern was awed at the knowledge it divulged.

This was a plan of such daring and epic proportions that both dragons and riders would be put at risk...
