From the Goodreads Synopsis

One of the main threats to Pernese civilization is Thread, described as a mycorrhizoid spore that periodically rains down on the planet due to the orbit of the Red Star.The Pernese use intelligent firebreathing dragons & their riders to fight Thread. The riders have a telepathic bond with their dragons, formed by Impression at the dragon's hatching.
The original trilogy stories, collected in an omnibus edition, take place immediately before & during the Ninth Pass.
