SOLVED. Fantasy Trilogy, each book set a 1000 years apart [s]

[John]

Hey I'm trying to find a fantasy series I read about 10+ years ago while in middle school. Probably YA fantasy, but not quite sure.

Each book in the series is set a 1000 years apart (or something like that, a significant amount of time anyways), society changes significantly in between the books.

In the first book the main character is a soldier sent to a fortress out in the middle of the sea, everybody expects peace but of course they get attacked, the soldiers fight using wyverns meanwhile magic is outlawed. (view spoiler)[and of course magic is needed to help the good guys win (hide spoiler)]

By the time of the second book kingdom is instead defended by magicians. I believe it starts out in a magic school/university. (view spoiler)[they get attacked by some magical beasts that are magic resistant, however all magicians teaming up together are able to win in the end (hide spoiler)]

The third book strives a balance between magicians and soldiers using wyverns, can't quite remember the whole thing buy believe this book is more about fighting the god-like power behind magic and the evil seen in the previous books and finding a real solution.

I hope someone can help!

The Enduring Flames trilogy by Mercedes Lackey somewhat matches your description, but it was published between 2007-2008.

Main fantasy series I can think of with wyverns is Katherine Kerr's Deverry series. It's a bit longer than three books though.

Neither one of those fit, I read the series around 2004 (and it was translated into another language by then).

Some extra details:
First book main protagonist is a young soldier.
Second book main protagonist is a student studying magic.
Third book main protagonist is the rulers son, (view spoiler)[ who if i remember correctly is adopted somehow, and the son of someone in an earlier book (maybe even the magician in book two) who was trapped somehow for a 1000 years and then gave birth in the beginning of book 3 before passing away. Not entirely sure though. (hide spoiler)]

Solved!

Appears I was wrong in one major assumption, it was NOT translated instead it was written in Swedish. (Which is rare, few fantasy novels originally in Swedish)

The series I was looking for is Trilogin om Frihetskrigen. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

Thanks anyways!

Great! Glad you found your book. :)
