Light of Requiem. Requiem: Song of Dragons, #3

War has ravaged the world. Cities lie crumbled. Forests smolder. The crows feast. In the ruins, Requiem's last dragons lick their wounds and mourn a death among them. But they will not have long to grieve. From the ashes, a new enemy arises, one more horrible than any before. His soldiers dead, the tyrant Dies Irae collects severed limbs, heads, and torsos. He sews them into rotting, maggoty mimics of life.
With dark magic, he animates his creations... and sends them hunting. The mimics live to kill. They do not sleep. They feel no pain. They never stop hunting. Worst of all, they undo all magic around them. When mimics are near, Requiem's survivors cannot become dragons... and must fight as humans. Without their greatest gift, how can Requiem's children survive?____________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
