Summary: Absolutely Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: I got this book as a christmas present, and I spent the entire day reading it. I loved it!!!!!!!! It was absolutely amzing, and much better than what some authors cough up. I also love the main character a lot, she isn't your typical medievil woman, and she's such a powerful protaganist. I'm not going to tell you what it's about, because I honestly beleive that you should read it for yourself, and see what an amazing book this is.

Review: Lanen is a young girl who wishes to explore the land outside of her cruel fathers farm and dreams of dragons but to her father she is only a foolish girl good for work.Then suddenly her father dies and she inherits enough money. with her mind made up Lanen sets off to explore but she soon is a part of a wild journey after finding out the real truth to who she is...........................Wow! this is all I can say for this book. It was so thrilling I read it all in 2 days........at some parts in the book you can actually relate to Lanen which makes the book and hero even more awesome...and it was in a sense different from many fantasy books........I think it really had more emotion in the writing...and that is why people enjoyed reading this book

Summary: Blissfully beautiful!
Review: The book and how it is written pulls you into what is happening that you don't ever want to drop the book! Chapter after chapter-- you're willing to keep on reading if it takes all day to figure out what is happen and what will be happening. It is an amazing written book and it just not another dragon book but it is more then that! It has great history before dragons became "dragons" -- they were the Greater Kindered as humans were Gedri! It's a must read if you are a fan of fantasy!

Summary: A Unique Experience!
Review: Song in the Silence is one of my all-time favorite books, and to me it comes just short of Anne McCaffery(my favorite author!). I have loaned this book out to all my friends at school because I loved it so much! And they all loved it as well. I am a very picky reader and this book was just amazing! I just found out recently that the second book came out and I had to beg my dad for his credit card so I could get it. I can't wait to read the second one and then for the third to come out!

Summary: A new Fantasy author unveiled
Review: Well, not really new, since I didn't discover this book until recently! The world Kerner builds and describes for her readers is convincingly done - I love the description of the different races and their choices at the beginning (it felt a little abstract at first, but becomes very clear in its importance later in the book, and in the sequel as well). As someone who discovered McCaffrey's dragon books at a young age, and loved them -- it was refreshing to find a new description of the personalities and functions of dragons. Many authors seem to either 'copy' McCaffrey, or else establish dragons as medieval bloodthirsty monsters. This is a new twist on a long-time mythological creature and I applaud it. I would place Kerner on the same level as Anne McCaffrey, LeGuin, McKillip, etc. Very well-written characters and novels. She's going to be a well-recognized author within this field for quite some time (and I say this as someone who was introduced to fantasy by Tolkien's books, and who maintains him on an entirely separate plane because his works are so well done) -- I have consistently been disappointed with many fantasy authors, who often have copycat plotlines, poor characterization, unbelievable worlds and languages, etc. -- but Kerner has managed to break through those barriers with a novel which really was a wonderful read. Some have commented on the love story - yes, there is a love story. I think for some people, that will color their interest in the book and how they assess it, especially if they're used to the 'love story' being an incidental part of the action, only really addressed at the end of the book. But I thought it was well done (and yes, there are people who do have 'love at first sight' type experiences, at the friend level and at the romantic level - I may not be one of them, but I've known couples who've been married 50 years and more who *did* meet that way. Far be it from me to contradict the validity of their experience!).
