From

This is an archetypal tale given originality by excellent characterization. The Kantri, or true dragons, have returned to the human world from which they fled centuries ago after a devastating battle with a demon lord. One of the wisest Kantri, Varien has become so enamored of the human woman who sought them out that he has taken human form for her sake. But the lady has been captured by the demon-master Berys. Berys must be destroyed before he can call the demons to destroy both the Kantri and the Gedri (humans). A different character narrates each chapter, and the narrators include a selection of the villains. Kerner handles first-person narration quite skillfully, and she develops both characters and action smoothly. It helps to have read this book's predecessors, Song in the Silence (1998) and The Lesser Kindred (2001), in Kern's dragon series, but that isn't strictly necessary to enjoying this consistently intelligent tale, which will captivate even readers who thought themselves thoroughly jaded about draconic studies.

“A complex and gratifying tale of loyalty and perseverance.”—Library Journal on The Lesser Kindred

“I had very much liked Song in the Silence and was most curious as to who the Lesser Kindred were. A good book is a real find but a good sequel to a good book is an extra treat. Especially if your curiosity has been nagging at you to find out what happens next. I've read The Lesser Kindred and now I want to find out what happens NEXT! The story is not over. I want more!”—Anne McCaffrey on The Lesser Kindred

“Not since Elizabeth Moon’s valiant Pak has a heroine of such stature, physical and moral, strode onto the stage of fantasy. The always irresistible connection between humankind and dragon born is given here a new twist. Thus this is a book to be read and shelved--for a second or third visit in the future--which is the best quality test any reader can devise.”—Andre Norton on Song in the Silence

“Elizabeth Kerner has a strong new voice that has the cadences and resonance of an old and wise bard.”—Jane Yolen on Song in the Silence

“Song in the Silence is an intelligently written romantic fantasy with a strong female protagonist. It will certainly appeal to fans of Anne McCaffrey and Mercedes Lackey.”—Josepha Sherman on Song in the Silence
