Publisher Description

Imager's Challenge takes up immediately after the conclusion of Imager. Still recovering from injuries received in foiling the plots of the Ferran envoy, Rhenn is preparing to take up his new duties as imager liaison to the Civic Patrol of L'Excelsis. No sooner has he assumed his new position than he discovers two things. First, the commander of the Civic Patrol doesn't want a liaison from the infamous Collegium and soon has Rhenn patrolling the streets of the worst district in the city. Second, Rhenn receives formal notice that one of the High Holders, the father of a man Rhenn partly blinded in self-defense, has declared his intention to destroy Rhenn and his family. Rhenn's only allies are the family of the girl he loves, successful merchants with underworld connections. In the end, Rhenn must stand off against gang lords, naval marines, Tiempran terrorist priests, the most powerful High Holder in all of Solidar, and his own Collegium---and find a way to prevail without making further enemies and endangering those he loves.

"Quite the action-packed book. Rhenn is such a strong character and I wouldn't want to be in his shoes. I didn't quite like the choices he made at the end in setting his future up for success, but it wouldn't make a superb ending without it? And now that I've listened to the 3rd book as well, realize it sets up the next one with some real depth to the plot. I could do without some of the actual politics."

    " This is the second book of the series, I think this book is a lot better than the first one. Some reviews didn't give this a good review, said Modesitt Jr. was "predictable." I found there were some parts of the book that were predictable but that's ok because the parts that aren't will surprise you. I was very surprised with the ending and I can't wait to read the next one. "

    " Picks up where the last book left off. The adventure continuous and our protagonists life gets more and more complicated and interesting as the plot thickens. Story follows the same style as the previous book. Really enjoyed it and waiting to get my hands on the third book. "

    " This second in the series continued with many open story arcs from the first book. It was an enjoyable read. What resonates most with me was the idea that people want things to be easier, not better. "

    " Not a bad addition, just weighed down by too much discussion and life philosophy without enough action and humor to make that fun. The society, characters and world are well designed. They just need to do more. "

    " The first book in the series was well done. The second book in the series less so, the same old game isn't as fun as it used to be, so this book only gets 3 stars. Read the first book and stop reading. "

    " A decent story, but it has flaws, it has anti-male sexism that is not based in supportable fact, and it's too long. That's why I gave it a 4/5. "

    " Good; I still like the Modesitt formula. This one felt just a tad bit like a poly sci/government econ text disguised as a fictional story, but maybe I'm projecting too much. A satisfying addition to the Imager series. "

    " This is one of Modesitt's best recent works. The characters were solid and the intrigue was complex but logical and well constructed. I was sad that Seliora didn't get more screen time, but she had quite a lot of work to do. "

    " The first of the three books is still the best, but this one provides further glimpses into Rhennthyl's world which is like and yet not like our world. I hope Modesitt writes more books in this series. "
