Diadem: Shadowsong is the third sub-series in Jo Clayton’s Diadem universe, set roughly ten years after the events of Shadith’s Quest. Shadith takes on a mission to negotiate a truce on a planet where two native species are threatened with genocide by alien races.
The trilogy includes Fire in the Sky (1995), The Burning Ground (1995), and Crystal Heat (1996). Together with the original ten-book Diadem series and the Shadith’s Quest trilogy, the Shadowsong books complete a sixteen-novel arc spanning nearly twenty years.
