Summary

The great powers are stirring, and Holt and Ash are ready to return to the fight.

A summons from the Life Elder sets them on a perilous mission, leading to steaming jungles and blistering islands where ancient secrets will challenge everything they know of magic and dragons.

Talia, the Red Queen, is beset on all sides by pirate raiders and marauding mercenaries. Empress Skadi has abandoned her, battling uprisings in her own lands. As the noose tightens on Feorlen, Talia faces a difficult choice: let her people suffer or turn her powers against mortal foes?

Osric Agravain has found hope with his newly bonded black dragon, but some wounds run deeper than flesh and bone. Along the Fallow Frontier, he seeks the inner peace that has long eluded him.

And within the sanctum at Falcaer, Paragon Adaskar is struggling to unite the fracturing riders. If he fails, ruinous chaos will break across the world.

For when Elders and Paragons quarrel, kingdoms will fall.

About the Creator - Michael R. Miller

About the Creator

Michael R. Miller: Hailing from the wet and wild west coast of Scotland, Michael enjoys writing stories as sweeping in scope as the ancient landscapes he grew up in. His writing is known for rich character arcs, tight pacing, and layered magic systems. Songs of Chaos is his love letter to the dragon rider sub-genre, drawing inspiration from the classics like Pern, Dragonlance, and Eragon and combining them with the harder magic systems of Branden Sanderson and Will Wight, creating an epic tale all ages can enjoy.
Michael is also ‘that guy’ who enjoys-well, enjoyed... -discussing the mad fan theories of Game of Thrones even more than the books or show, and knows more about World of Warcraft than is probably healthy.

As ALWAYS Amaizing!!!

Loved it! Just like the others. A great read with a lot of feelings. I was literally afraid of going further at one point, because I was not sure my heart could handle the turn of events. But I kept listening anyway and even though you get a lot of feelings through the book, it is worthwhile. I will even say it makes it all the better.

I love Peter Kenny as a narrator.

The Song of Chaos Series is one of my all-time favourite. It is simply AMAZING.
Well done world building and characters, with great development.
Dragon fantasy done right!

Loving this series, can’t wait for the next book

As a long time reader and lover of fantasy books, especially dragon rider fantasy, I found this book to be gripping, the story is exceptionally well thought out and the characters are well defined and have grown through each book. The narrator gives a masterful performance and helped immerse me in this world. The magic system was both fun, interesting and at times mouthwatering (former chef here.)

I can’t recommend this series enough, and eagerly await the next instalment.

An Immense Epic

Addictive inciting ardour (new favorite word), my only wrath is surviving the great chasm that are the songs sung before book 4
