From Amazon.com

Requiem for the Sun is the standalone sequel to the USA Today-bestselling Rhapsody trilogy (Rhapsody , Prophecy , and Destiny ). This novel will please fans of Elizabeth Haydon's high-fantasy series, but it may confuse newcomers because numerous characters from the trilogy return, and most are introduced in the book's early pages.

In the peace following the events of the trilogy, the singer Rhapsody believes she and her husband, the part-dragon Lord Cymrian, can at last start a family. Meanwhile, the assassin-king Achmed seeks to rebuild Canrif, his mountain capital. Then Lord Cymrian rejects Rhapsody's heart's desire; the giant Sergeant-Major Grunthor hears the earth itself screaming; the Dowager Empress of Sorbold, a realm of deep magic, dies under suspicious circumstances; and a powerful unknown enemy, as ancient and youthful as Rhapsody, seeks stealthily to steal her for himself. --Cynthia Ward



From Publishers Weekly

There's something utterly refreshing about a fantasy hero and heroine, half-human masters of the elements and rulers of a continent, whose private names for each other are Sam and Emily. With bright and tender touches like these, Haydon breathes new life into fantasy cliches in this sequel to her bestselling Rhapsody trilogy. The fierce, compassionate and exquisitely gorgeous Rhapsody and her draconian husband, Ashe along with their longtime companions, Achmed, King of the Firbolg, and the ferocious but kindhearted Sergeant-Major Grunthor once more take on an evil F'dor demon and its human host, a man Rhapsody believed long dead. The author has smoothed out many of the rough edges evident in Rhapsody (1999), Prophecy (2000) and Destiny (2001), toning down the most overt references to the series' roots in Welsh mythology and Regency bodice-rippers. At the same time, the stated history and dropped hints, as well as style and tone, remain consistent with earlier volumes. Unfortunately, the characters change little or not at all throughout the course of the story, but the rich complexities of historical subtext, unsubtle scheming of religious and political leaders and classical romantic elements are enough to keep the pages turning. Although quite readable as a stand-alone work, the many loose threads left untied promise numerous future volumes, which are certain to be devoured by Haydon's growing legions of fans.

First Sentence
The light of the harbor torches fluttered on the waves and reflected back at the night sky, a dim imitation of the waxing moon that hung stubbornly above the end of the quay, ducking in and out of the clouds racing past on the wind. Lire la première page

4.0étoiles sur 5 Another compelling addition to the Symphony of Ages, Mars 26 2006
The fourth book in this series absolutly a must read! If you find Robert Jordan to be boring and much to unemotional, this epic fantasy is for you. The charaters are colorful and bright, they develop at a normal pace not like other epics. For all you romantics there is a heroine and leading man you will be unable to dislike.
I reccomend all the Symphony of Ages.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Good - But Not As Good As the First Three, Janv. 26 2004
Par Un client
I love, love, love the original series. I thought this book was very good overall - but I did not like the portrayal of Achmed (who is my favorite character). He came across as, well... not weak, exactly, but weaker than I expected him to be. Elizabeth - if you read this - please, keep Achmed the way he was!! No more allowing Ashe to berate him or almost drowning or being completely fooled by a murderer!!!

4.0étoiles sur 5 Requiem for the Sun, Nov. 15 2003
Par Un client
This book is a fantastic follow to the previous three books, Hope there is a fourth to see how Rhapsody and her baby are. There is an appearance from an old foe, great deeds from unexpected people. Over all a great read and highly recommended.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Don't judge a book by it's summary!
