About the Author
Having travelled the world extensively Elizabeth Haydon now lives on the East coast of America with her family. She is an editor in educational publishing. In her spare time she plays music.
Review
Barely a week passes without some new fantasy trilogy forcing its way into an overcrowded field. So why should we pay attention to Haydon? Certainly eyebrows were raised at the $3m film deal signed on the basis of a synopsis for her earlier Rhapsody, but (fortunately) the writing has justified the hype. While Haydon sometimes adopts the purple prose that is the curse of the genre, she is a writer of real distinction, with the adventure of Destiny conjured with maximum vividness. In Rhapsody a fellowship was created: three companions who found themselves to be the world's only hope. The eponymous Rhapsody, a singer, Achmed, the enigmatic assassin, and Grunthor (shame about the Dickensian name), the abrasive muscle of the group. The trio may be the only hope for averting a world-threatening catastrophe. Haydon's interest in folklore pays off handsomely here, and she creates her own mythology with effortless skill.
