Industry Reviews
"Strong military action, slick social maneuvering, and a good deal of psychological tension." --San Diego Union-Tribune"Mr. Modesitt does not merely posit a threatened Utopia; he spells out in great detail the rules and regulations that govern daily life....because he dares to be explicit about first principles, the narrative assumes the shape of an intellectual suspense story: how can the manifestly decent people of Old Earth defend themselves against aggression without violating their deeply held beliefs? The answer is both morally persuasive and emotionally wrenching." --The New York Times"Immensely enjoyable and beautifully written--easily Modesitt's best yet." --Robert J.
