Modesitt is a philosopher.
He hides it behind his works of fiction but in his works he explores
relationships, economic systems, the dangers of power and more. This book follows up with the Rex of
Solidar. Charyn is a very young Rex who
do to assorted tragedies and treacheries ended up as Rex.
The friction between High Holders and Factors is exacerbated
by both religious upheaval and labor force problems. Charyn’s efforts to evoke change seem to
penalize everyone, himself included.
Modesitt tends to be wordy but he provides a truly in-depth character
study along with philosophic underpinnings for actions and decisions.
This was an enjoyable read.
This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
