Title: Not the best Saga of Recluse book
Review: This book has the same formula which has worked well in the previous books in the Recluse series, but in The Death of Chaos it seems to be getting a little tired. In each of the previous books, the hero settles a major problem of the time (and creates the groundwork for future problems), and makes a discovery about the order/chaos balance. In The Death of Chaos, however, Lerris' solution is virtually the same as Justen's in The Order War, and it seems that we're right back where we were after the destruction of Fairhaven. I also find it strange that Justen and Dayala would be in favor of such a resolution. In spite of my objections to the conclusion, the storytelling is as strong as ever and The Death of Chaos is a difficult book to put down.
