Summary

L. E. Modesitt, Jr., is one of the standard setters in fantasy today, 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 diligent student of remarkable talent, Lorn lacks only 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 50 percent mortality rate. His enemies don't expect him to survive....

Lorn is a fresh, new character who will enrich one of today's most important fantasy series: the Saga of Recluce.

Hard to get into at first

Having enjoyed the series so far when I started this book I have to say I wasn’t gripped but I stuck with it as L. E. Modesitt Jr. is a pretty good author and this may not be his best book it’s still a good story and I will be continuing on with the series

Classic

L. E Modesitt Jr wrote a masterpiece of intrigue, action, magic and slice of life. The depth of the characters and lore of Recluse never ceases to amaze, it's a fun read. I loved reading this book and then loved listening to it.

Lacks any plot

A rather dull read made even worse by awful narration. From a laboured delivery to shouted accents it made a difficult listen, look elsewhere.
