Title: Tiresome fantasy scifi
Review: I like good techno-real science fiction or at least a good space opera, fantasy scifi is not what I like to read. Unfortunately this novel goes off into drivel about princes and princlings wearing red and gold outfits and even has people riding horses and harvesting crops.This latest in the Andrej Koscuisko series from Ms. Matthews is the weakest of the series. Previous novels in the series were at times gruesome but also exciting and well written. The writing in this one is difficult to read requiring that I read a paragraph over a time or two to get it. The sentence structure is awkward and not always just to try to convey the strange world and language of the planet where the story is set.This novel does not stand alone. One must have read the previous novels in the series to enjoy this one and one must have read them recently enough to remember all about Dormitt Prison, and why what's-her-name hates Andrej so much or much of the story in this novel makes little sense.
