With her best-selling fantasy trilogy, DRAGON PRINCE, Melanie Rawn introduced
us to the Sunrunner'' magic and sorcerous evil, to a ruler striving to bring peace to warring
kingdoms --and to her magnificent dragons.
In STRONGHOLD, the first novel in Melanie Rawn's DRAGON STAR
trilogy, the peace won by High Prince Rohan is shattered when a mysterious invasion force begins
a devastating campaign against the people of the Desert.
Now, in THE DRAGON TOKEN, the time for retreat has come to an end as Rohan's
son and heir ,Pol, rallies his forces in a desperate bid to halt the advance of the invaders. But
ancient rivalries begin t weaken his alliance and only time will tell whether those loyal to the High
Prince can defeat both the foreign invaders and the betrayers in their own ranks.
And even as Pol leads his troops forth, Andry, the Sunnrunner Lord of Goddess Keep, is also
determined to take the attack to this enemy force which has sworn to slay all workers of
magic.
Yet the invaders have their own agenda of conquest, and they are even now readying t strike at
the very heart of the Desert, stealing treasures which Pol and Andry would pay any price to
reclaim - even if the price should prove to be their own lives....
