In 1968, Anne McCaffrey first published Dragonflight and the magic that is Pern began. Readers were instantly captivated by a pseudo-medieval world where a deadly organism fell from the skies and humankind rode magnificent dragons to save their planet. So enthralling was this idea that people wanted more and more. Pern developed a life of its own, seemingly, growing and deepening in richness as the years and books went by. The minutia that is the charm of Pern continues to tease the imagination to this day. For some, it has been a great influence in how we think, for others, it is a simple, but necessary escape. Either way, you can't help but to be drawn into this fascinating place.
Come join us in studying the clothing of Pern, just one small aspect of the world we love, one that we can actually recreate without resorting to genetics.
