Description In Favor Of Books Destiny: Child of the Sky (Symphony of Ages #3)
A FELLOWSHIP OF THREETo stand against the F'dor-- an ancient, vile being intent on destroying the world-- a fellowship has been forged: Rhapsody, a Singer of great talent and beauty; Achmed, an assassin with unearthly talents; and Grunthor, a giant of jolly disposition and lethal skill with weapons.

As much as I loved this trilogy and these characters, I think I am going to stop right here and not continue reading the series. I think Rhapsody and Ashe's story is complete and I would like to keep it that way.I've read some of the reviews of the next books, and I think it's safe to keep this trilogy as a special place in my heart instead of it maybe soiling it the more I read.It finished off perfectly ----- except for Achmed (I really wanted a HEA for him) especially since him and GuntherI really liked this book, and the way that Haydon wrapped things up. The search for the Rakshas' children was a nice additon, and the end of the F'dor was highly satisfying. Even though I was dismayed at first to see 200 pages left, she did a good job of tying up all the loose ends. I am looking forward to reading the next book.
This book was WAY long, which was why it gets 4 stars (prolly closer to 3.5). I love the main characters, but I really felt like the book dragged on and on and on. So many things happening. And I'm not entirely certain the ending was worth it (the very last chapter). I liked the overall wrap up and will definitely be continuing the series.

Sometimes books put me in physical pain. Or is it the virus? Fortunately no, this time the pain comes from reading Mary Sue Rhapsody's Destiny. So put yourself in my shoes. It's 2020, in COVID-19 related lockdown, facing fat books on your unread pile, and you begin reading a 800+ page slog, forcing yourself to push through, trying to convince yourself that you enjoy fantasy fiction. But it never gets better, not after page 200, where the first battle starts, nor page 500, where we meet the fat
Why did I read all three of these? WHY??
This was a solid conclusion to a thoroughly enjoyable series and I would definitely recommend it for anyone who enjoys some romance in their fantasy, anyone who likes a solid good vs evil plotline, anyone who enjoys suspense and mystery, and anyone looking for some well done alternatives to traditional fantasy races.
