You dream about music, but you have to clean fish. You write songs, and your own father brutally beats you for it. Your mother maims your hand so you can’t play the guitar anymore...
And the girl Menoli runs away. She has no idea that the long road will lead her to the House of Harpers, where there are undercurrents and predatory fish, but where music always sounds. She doesn’t know that her songs will be sung throughout Pern, and that her teacher will be the master Roibinton himself. And of course she doesn’t suspect she will meet a sly Piemur—a friend, an assistant, a cheerful rogue and adventurer.
But very soon she will meet those who will require many забот—those thanks to whom she will become the only owner on the planet of nine fire-lizards.
