 The Order War
The fourth volume of Modesitt's saga about the fantasy world of Recluce falls chronologically between The Magic Engineer and The Magic of Recluce (1991) and most closely resembles the former. In it, a young Black Engineer is called on to oppose a formidable coalition of White Wizards that is threatening to overrun the last bastion of order in Recluce. Defeated and driven into exile, he has to call on all available magic as well as appropriate technology to ensure even his own survival, let alone the remotest chance of the victory of order. Modesitt's elaborate and intelligent working out of a system of magic and a system of technology parallel to it is becoming more the life-blood of the Recluce books with every new volume. Pacing continues to be slow, but as before, Modesitt gives us a new twist on the theme of chaos versus order, which is one of the reasons his saga continues to gain in popularity. -BooklistNever read The Order War?
