In Profetie zet Haydon het verhaal voort over Rapsodie, een jonge vrouwelijke troubadour, die in een wereld vol magie, romantiek en spanning het hoofd moet bieden aan oeroude duistere krachten. Rapsodie, Achmed en Grunthor de F'dor zijn ontsnapt door de wortels van Sagia. Tijdens hun epische reis zijn eeuwen verstreken, zijn hun thuislanden vernietigd en hun volkeren verspreid over de wereld. Nu moeten ook zij ieder hun eigen weg gaan.

Zangeres Rapsodie is jong, getalenteerd, knap en op de vlucht voor haar verleden als courtisane. Wanneer de handlangers van een akelige klant haar dreigen te pakken, wordt ze geholpen door twee mannen. Al snel vraagt Rapsodie zich af of ze niet van de regen in de drup terecht is gekomen. De ene man, Achmed, blijkt een gevreesd moordenaar te zijn terwijl Grunthor, de andere, zo lijkt weggelopen uit een nachtmerrie. En beide mannen zijn op de loop voor iets wat nog veel erger is.

The three heroes of RHAPSODY face up to their destinies and split up to carry the war against the demon who seeks to wake the dragon at the earth’s core forward. This is fantasy with a richly detailed world, a sustained multi-volume story and characters who you can immediately fall in love with.

ELEGY FOR A LOST STAR sets the stage for a major turning point in the Symphony of Ages series.

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.
