Publisher's Summary
Four centuries after its founding, Solidar's Collegium of Imagers is
in decline, the exploits of its founder, the legendary Quaeryt, largely
forgotten. The Collegium is so lacking in leadership that the dying
Maitre must summon Alastar, an obscure but talented senior imager who
has little knowledge of politics in the capital, as his successor.
When Alastar arrives in L'Excelsis and becomes the new Maitre, he finds
disarray and lack of discipline within the Collegium, and the ruler
of Solidar is so hated by the High Holders that they openly refer to
him as being mad. To make matters worse, neither Rex Ryen nor the High
Holders have any respect for the Collegium.
Soon Alastar finds himself in the middle of a power struggle, with Ryen
demanding that the Collegium remove the strongest High Holders and the
military leadership in turn plotting to topple Ryen and destroy the
Collegium. At the same time, Ryen is demanding that the High Holders
pay a massive increase in taxes while he initiates a grandiose building
project. And all that, Alastar discovers, is only a fraction of the
problems he and the Collegium face.
What the Critics Say
"Modesitt once again delivers an engrossing power struggle negotiated
by a virtuous and talented man committed to achieving the greater good
by way of the least harm." (Kirkus)
