Review title: You have read this book already
Product review: So far I haven't suspected the lack of imagination in the L. E., Jr. Modesitt, but after this book I begun to wonder. When I passed the middle of the book, I had to check that I hadn't taken one of the Recluce books by mistake. I mean, the similarities are too numerous to be accidental. The sorcerer and sorceress who fall in love, the watersprout that is created by Secca, the engine that the smith is trying to build (which is mentioned once for no apparent purpose) - all these elements are already familiar to anyone who read the Recluce series.I also got the imperssion that to prolong the series, author is adding the elements that are not organic for these series, and they look foreign (for example all the line of the Ladies of the Shadow). In short, for me the book was a disappointment.
