Book description
ELEGY FOR A LOST STAR sets the stage for a major turning point in the
Symphony of Ages series. The dragon Anwyn--who has lain for three years
in deathlike sleep in a grave of rock and black coal is freed by the
cataclysm that concluded Requiem For The Sun. Disoriented and confused,
she remembers only two things-the person who trapped her in dragon form
and locked her in the grave - Rhapsody - and an all-encompassing desire
to wreak vengeance. Meanwhile, Achmed, the Firbolg king, resumes
rebuilding the his shattered home, while a guild of merciless assassins
set about taking revenge on him for the killing of their leader. A
horribly deformed but magical being finds its way through a carnival of
freaks to the palace of an evil despot, who sees in it the potential to
be the instrument by which his plans of conquest and brutal domination
of a continent will be realized. With the rise of new leaders, good and
evil, the long-awaited birth of the Child of Time, the dark plans of
assassins and rulers, a confrontation that shakes the relationship of
the Three, and a battle to the death between two dragons of unimaginable
elemental power, the seeds of chaos are planted for a war that will, by
its end, consume half of the world.
