Read from June 30 to July 09, 2010
the 3rd Rhenn novel from the Imager series - the next Imager novel will go quite a while back in time with new characters
I loved the first two which form a duology with a definite ending but kind of needing to be read together; this one starting some 5 years later is more of a standalone, though it uses some of the back story. The ending again is definite like the one from book 2, but there is scope for more of course, though I would expect another gap of 5-10 years at least in the story and since the author is now working on the earlier set trilogy, i guess we will have to wait a while for more Rhenn...
More Ferran mischief, though this time it really gets serious and it's up to Rhenn to save the day as usual though of course the far-sight flashes from his wife help too...
I tend to think that this series is LE Modesitt's best at least as fantasy goes and Imager 3 has all the things from the previous volumes - intrigue, assassinations, complex plots, great characters in Rhenn and Seliora first and foremost, but also Iryel and some of the other Imagers
Again it's a book i could talk a lot about - i will have a full review next week, or the week of its publication (July 20) - but I would not want to spoil too much.
For people who like 'complete" series, Imager so far has a pretty complete duology (Imager, Imager's Challenge) and a reasonably standalone Imager's Intrigue so I strongly recommend them...
