For countless millennia the Star Dance and the TimeKeeper Demons have battled their way across the universe, destroying innumerable planets, laying waste to civilizations across the cosmos.Choosing the land of Tencendor as their last battleground, the demons break through the Star Gate. The Gate destroyed, all magic in the world is gone and the three races of Tencendor are plunged into a vortex of chaos, madness, and death.Caelum SunSoar, son of the near-immortal Starman Axis and beloved ruler of all the land's peoples, is dead. Leaderless, those not killed outright or driven mad flee to the one place left to them, Sanctuary, a magical place created ages past to shield all who are good from the wrath of the demons.There is for some one hope left: DragonStar, Axis's other son. Many believe he is the true StarSon, the only being that can save their world. Others are just as convinced that he is in league with the demons and will be their doom. Only DragonStar knows the truth and as he and his companions go forth to do battle he prays that he may convince all that his motives are pure.What he does not know is that there is a traitor who plans to hand Sanctuary over to the Demons. A betrayer whose actions could force DragonStar to make a sacrifice so bloody and horrific that it could mean the destruction of everything that he holds dear in this life or the next.And if he fails, could doom Tecendor to an eternal hell.… (mehr)

Great author, but I didn't care for this particular book. I had trouble "getting into" the story and I found the characters in likable. ( )

I did not find this a very satisfying conclusion to the series, love defeats all has never been the most persuasive argument to me. ( )

Tencendor is a wasteland. The forests are gone and each man or beast remaining in the land wanders aimlessly absorbed in a nightmare of insanity and pestilence. Bound to the temporary safety of Sanctuary, the inhabitants of Tencendor await the Demon's final assault. When they have succeeded in bring life to their master, Queteb, the all-powerful Midday Demon, there will be no shelter from destruction. According to prophecy, only the Starson can offer hope. But Caelum is plagued by nightmares, and fears that if he enters the Maze, Drago will kill him.

The first three books in this series were fabulous. But I think that Douglass stretched the story way too far. The ties that bound this mythology together begin to unravel. The characters leave much to be desired, the story is splintered, and the brutality is often unnecessarily gruesome. Too many loose threads remain - who are the people of the forest? Where did the enchantress come from? What on earth was that Zenith/Wolfstar thing all about? And was it really necessary to tie this vision to an 'old earth' which did nothing for developing the story?

I really couldn’t enjoy this – I tried, but it just didn’t work for me. It gets three stars only because I know Sara Douglass is a much better writer than this.

Maybe there is another one to come that will tidy up all the loose ends and provide an ending that does justice to the strength of the earlier books in the series. ( )
