All five stories are set on the fictional planet Pern; ''First Fall'' is one of two collections in the science fiction series ''Dragonriders of Pern''.〔.〕 ==The Collection== The ''First Fall'' stories are united by the setting: they span a period from before humans arrived and the first few decades of settlement in the southern continent. Generally the stories are about the relocation and reorganization of the southern colony in response to the "First Pass" of the "Red Star"—an erratic planet that periodically brings a biological menace, in the form of falling thread. The twelfth ''Dragonriders of Pern'' book, ''First Fall'' shares its early setting only with one previously published book in the series, ''Dragonsdawn'' (1988). MacCaffrey places ''Dragonsdawn'' and ''First Fall'' in a perspective of the ancient history of Pern. ''First Fall'' was published simultaneously in the US and the UK, by Del Rey Books and Bantam UK, each edition with different cover art. As noted below, three of the five stories were previously published, two as small books. The first and last stories show from FSP perspectives the explanation for Pern's unusual relation to the Federation of Sentient Planets: colonized, but left entirely alone for thousands of years. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Chronicles of Pern: First Fall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
