I haven’t read any Walter Jon Williams in quite awhile. This book is a novel of the Praxis and I’m
guessing part of a series. The story
ends without a conclusion so I expect to see a sequel. The two main characters are Sula and
Gareth. Former lovers and now no more
than associates or so it seems. I just
opened the book again and see this isn’t a first book of the series but at least
the third. I guess I have some back
reading.
An association of species brought together as an empire by a
now deceased race is struggling to maintain the status quo. A society wrapped in layers of bureaucratic
rigmarole and entrenched hereditary leadership is starting to crumble. Sula and Gareth are both symptomatic and causative.
The story had enough nuances and action to keep me
entertained.
This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
