Six years have passed since the failed uprising of the High Holders, and Charyn, the rex’s heir, has come of age and sets out to educate himself, against his father’s wishes, on how to be an effective rex after his father.

When privateers attack the rex’s ships, and threats escalate against the rex and his family, Charyn realizes that no one is safe--for an assassin stalks them all.

Locus Bestseller List

“A master of world-building.”—What's New in Book Reviews

"The series as a whole is exceptional. In fact, I am not sure whether I will nominate The Imager Portfolio or The Saga of Recluce for the Hugo's new Best Series award. Both series have moved fantasy forward.”—SFRevu

“How satisfying it is to settle down with another long, solid novel by L.E. Modesitt, Jr.”—SF Crowsnest

“The level of detail Modesitt brings to his world-building is, as always, both uncompromising and astonishing . . . one of the most complex depictions of the evolution of a fantasy universe ever.”—Tor.com

“L.E. Modesitt, Jr. . . . His name alone makes the promise of engaging adventure, be it of the high fantasy or science fiction variety.”—Mania

With meticulously wrought characters and complex, logically developed plotting that towers above the fantasy norm.” —Kirkus Reviews
