Dragon Prince was too easy. Melanie cranks it up to 11 in this one as the Dark Ages come to the island of the Princes. Hope you're not too attached to any main characters or their sanity.
A throwback to high school, re-reading now just for fun
The Dragon Star trilogy takes up where the Dragon Prince trilogy ended. More swords, dragons, magic coming your way, as Pol, the son of Rohan and Sioned, steps up to the plate.
The entire series has wonderfully written characters with flaws as breathtaking as their abilities. The magic is inventive and I liked the use of colors to help describe characters.

Representaion During Books Stronghold (Dragon Star #1)
With her widely acclaimed, bestselling fantasy trilogy, Dragon Prince, Melanie Rawn opened an enchanted gateway to a spellbinding universe of Sunrunner’s magic and sorcerous evil, of a ruler fighting to bring peace to a world of warring kingdoms, and of the dragons—deadly dangerous yet holding the secret to wealth beyond imagining. Now, in Stronghold, the first novel of Melanie’s new Dragon Star trilogy, there is a devastating new challenge to the power of both the High Prince Rohan and Andry, Lord of the Sunrunners at Goddess Keep, as a mysterious and seemingly unstoppable invasion force swarms across their lands. For Andry it signals the start of a nightmare made real, the horrifying fulfillment of his long ago visions of his homeland in flames, and he will draw upon even the forbidden sorcerer’s magic in an attempt to destroy this enemy which is bent on the extermination of all Sunrunners. Rohan and his son Pol will also fight the enemy with every weapon at their command—from their valiant warriors, to conjurations with sun, moons, and stars, to the terrifying presence of the dragons, to the unforgiving wrath of the Desert itself. Yet soon they begin to fear that this invasion may prove not only the end of their dream of an unbreakable peace but the beginning of the end of their entire world….Details Books In Pursuance Of Stronghold (Dragon Star #1)

Pol and Meiglan have a family all of their own. They are grown up. Pol is spoiled, lazy and very happy. Meiglan annoyed me a bit at first, but I think I'm coming around. Pol should have believed his dragon and Audry makes me want to injure him slowly and painfully! Does he think only he can stop the coming invasion? Well he can't! So he can just nicely get off his high horse and sit down. Once the invaders attack, Pol and Rohan argue about how it should be handled. This causes strain forthe invasion of rohan's continent by the barbarians sees the end of all rohan and sioned believed in and worked so hard to bring about - peace! war reigns and its so brutal, the invaders want only to wipe all the people out but they are interested in the desert for some reason! hence the castles bordering the desert are left intact but what do they want from the desert? and will andry and pol not be able to put their differences and jealousies behind them in order to work together to save what
