4.0 out of 5 stars Sun-woven book of fantasy, 27 Nov 2000
By laurell@orc.ru (Moscow, Russia) - See all my reviews
Melanie Rawn happens to be one of my favorite authors, and for several good reasons, but the Dragon Prince trilogy is probably her best. Wonderful language, breathtakingly beautiful magic (and fantasy is often about magic, you'll agree) and fascinating plot make this book another dazzling piece of her sun-woven tapestry.

The characters, in particular, have remarkable depth and beauty to them that make the book into a legend worthy of a minstrel's praise. For those who have read the Dragon Prince (and I heartily suggest you do if you haven't) this is a welcome respite from wars. Rohan and Sioned, the great pair from the first book, finally have a chance to make their dreams of thriving princedoms and a happy family real. And one actually begins to understand why they should rule this world! That is rare in itself -- usually good swashbuckling heroes have the most bizarre ideas, if any at all.

It also offers a good insight into the younger generation, laying the foundation for the later books and their plots and relationships. Some favorite characters of the first book find their development here, and some even meet their end, in tragic notes that ring so true that they brought tears to my eyes. Melanie Rawn, I'll say that for her, is nothing if not sincere.

I'm not sure it can stand on its own -- though I have started reading this trilogy with the later Sunrunner's Fire and it did not spoil my delight in it one bit! But it's a nice rest in the summer shade from the heat of the earlier and later books.

Recommended heartily!

5.0 out of 5 stars A stunning novel, 30 Mar 2004
I opened this book and was completely hooked by the end of the first chapter. The chapters are very long but are split up into several shorter paragraphs.
The book is about a young prince called Pol, his parents, Rohan and Sioned and his family. Rohan is the high prince and the most powerful man on the continent. Sioned, his wife, is a sunrunner. Sunrunners are powerful people who are ruled by an old woman called Andrade who lives at a place called Goddess Keep. they can contact each other at long distances by using the sun or the moon. They can also call fire.
The sunrunners have an ancient forgoton enemy, told about only in the Star Scroll. These are now growing, waiting to retake the continent from the sunrunners.
The one problem with this book is that it takes a while to remember the difference between 2 people with similar names. Other than this, the length of it and some difficult to follow parts, this book is a stunning read.

5.0 out of 5 stars x-xhrx-x, 7 Oct 2006
This is a briliant read. Its quite complicated,so dont give up if you start and it dosn't make much sense, as you go on it will. Its the second book in the dragon prince series. It tells what happens to Rohan and his sunrunner (peopled trained to communicate by the sun and moon, and to controll fire and air) wife Sioned as high prince and high princess. Its tells of the development of all the old characters and some new ones. Ianthe's boys have big rolls aswell. The star scrolls have been found witch are full of dark magic from the old blood and have potiential to be very dangerous and cause lots of trouble for old Lady Andrade and her sunrunners. Its brilliantly wrote and will have you hooked.
