A Memory of Fire. Requiem: The Dragon War, #3

Darkness covers Requiem.  The cruel Cadigus family, usurpers of the throne, rule with an iron fist.  The Resistance, a band of desperate rebels, lies smashed and scattered.  Hope fades.  Some say it is utterly lost. Bloodied, the Resistance hides in distant lands.  Most of its fighters lie dead.  One of its leaders, captured in battle, suffers torture in the dungeons of Cadigus.  Old Requiem seems like nothing but a dying dream, a memory of fire and starlight.
Yet even in the darkest night, the embers of defiance glow.  The last few resistors muster.  Rising as dragons, lighting the sky with fire, they fly to their last stand -- an attack on the capital itself.____________THE REQUIEM SERIES: Requiem: Dawn of DragonsBook 1: Requiem's SongBook 2: Requiem's HopeBook 3: Requiem's PrayerRequiem: Song of DragonsBook 1: Blood of RequiemBook 2: Tears of RequiemBook 3: Light of RequiemRequiem: DragonloreBook 1: A Dawn of DragonfireBook 2: A Day of Dragon BloodBook 3: A Night of Dragon WingsRequiem: The Dragon WarBook 1: A Legacy of LightBook 2: A Birthright of BloodBook 3: A Memory of FireRequiem: Requiem for DragonsBook 1: Dragons LostBook 2: Dragons RebornBook 3: Dragons RisingRequiem: Flame of RequiemBook 1: Forged in DragonfireBook 2: Crown of DragonfireBook 3: Pillars of DragonfireRequiem: Dragonfire RainBook 1: Blood of DragonsBook 2: Rage of DragonsBook 3: Flight of Dragons
