*"Unlike most middle books of fantasy trilogies, Haydon's dazzling second volume of the second trio of her bestselling Symphony of the Ages series ("Rhapsody: Child of Blood," etc.) inspires and thrills all on its own. The ominous rumble of the scheming intensifies in a crescendo of fear and tragedy that leaves the reader breathless and not a little teary-eyed. Those who eagerly anticipated this volume will be even more desperate for the next, and if the author's stunning rate of improvement is anything to go by, it will be well worth the wait. Fans eager for more will find some beautifully detailed supporting information for the series on the author's Web site (www.elizabethhaydon.com)."--"Publishers Weekly" Starred Review
"Haydon expertly builds suspense, plays with the readers' expectation, and remains true to her characters and the world she created. With warmth, humor, and vivid details, the people and places of this saga feel far more alive than standard fantasy heroes and villains usually do. It's not necessary to have read the entire series, but knowledge of the previous volume, Requiem for the Sun, will make the action easier to understand."--"Romantic Times Bookclub," 4 1/2 Stars
"A compelling fifth book continues the richly detailed, complex Symphony of Ages saga, begun in "Rhapsody: Child of Blood" (1999), by taking up where" Requiem for the Sun" (2002) left off to relate events presaging a devastating war. Haydon masterfully maintains characters, the world they inhabit, and the flux of epic adventure and turmoil to make this book worthy of the series and leave readers yearning for the rest of the story."--"Booklist"
