I was nervous about buying the Kindle edition because other reviews said that they were filled with editorial mistakes that made even understanding the story difficult. Still I was looking for a book to read right at that moment and so I decided to take the risk and buy the Kindle edition.Either this book was re-edited or the initial errors were hugely overstated.

Pure white and incredibly agile, Ruth was a dragon of many talents, though almost everyone on Pern thought he was a runt that would never amount to anything. Never had there been as close a bonding as the one that existed between the daring and adventurous young Lord Jaxom and his extraordinary white dragon, Ruth. But Jaxom knew better, knew he could teach his dragon to fly and to destroy the deadly silver Threads that fell from the sky. Their illicit flights seemed but a minor disobedience - until they found themselves in the path of danger and in a position to prevent the biggest disaster of all.. Disobeying all rules, Jaxom and Ruth trained in secret
