Title: Magi'i of Cyador
Description: Tor 2000 Hardback, 544pp. L. E. Modesitt, Jr. is one of the standard names in fantasy entering the new decade, and his most famous series is the Saga of Recluce. Each novel fills in pieces of the history of this land where Chaos and Order strive to maintain a magical balance.Magi'i of Cyador marks the beginning of a new tale from deep within the rich depths of the history of Recluce. This is the story of Lorn, a talented boy born into a family of Magi'i. A fastidious student of remarkable talent, Lorn lacks the single most coveted attribute required of a Magus of Cyador: unquestionable loyalty. Lorn is too independent for his own good.So Lorn is forced to become a lancer officer, and he's sent to the frontier to fight off the all-too-frequent barbarian raids -- a career that comes with a fifty percent mortality rate. His enemies don't expect him to survive.Lorn is a fresh, new character who will enrich one of the most important fantasy series of the decade: the Saga of Recluce. (ISBN: 9780312872267). Very Good.
