"This is Book #3 in the Imager Portfolio. As I wrote in my review of Book #2, the first two were a complete duology, except that I wanted to know about the characters. Therefore, I'm glad Modesitt wrote Imager's Intrigue because I got to learn more of the character's and what happened in their life. That said, I found it a little more difficult to be drawn into the story in this one, but I eventually was and then didn't want to put it down. [Caveat: The difficulty getting into the story may have been because I was sick while reading it & on some heavy meds.] The story starts up about 5 years after the last book and Rhenn is married and has a family now. The title of the book is accurate as there is more intrigue than true action in this book. I like political intrigue in my SciFi/Fantasy so this was a good book for me but those who liked the the imager action more may be disappointed as its not the main focus of the book. (Even so, I could've done without the many lectures as to water rights and land valuation in the book, especially as it wasn't all that relevant to the underlying story. Once would've been enough, perhaps.) Modesitt's story-telling is fascinating. The book ends in such away that this could be a stand alone or it could allow for more exploration of characters in this world but I would think it would start some years later as well. I hope there is more to come in this series!"

    " While some stretches of the book were a little dry for my taste, I still enjoyed this book. Modesitt's knowledge of trade and economics and how they both come into play on a global scale set his writings apart from many other novelist. One can directly relate the actions set into motion in his stories by greedy governments to the history of our own world. "

    " Amazing finish to the series. The time-skip was a bit strange at the beginning, but after you get over that, it really brings closure to the entire thing. Can't wait for more stories from this world. "

    " Being a powerful imager has its advantages, but there are also more than just a few dangers and responsibilities involved. This story had a lot of adventure and intrigue, sprinkled with many thoughtful moments, and the joys of everyday life. It was a pleasure to read. "

    " The first one was good enought to get me to continue reading. I liked this one the best. More story and plot and less on mundane activities. "

    " This is his best yet in this series. It really deserves a 4.5. I liked that the plot moved right along and there was plenty of action. Somehow, you cannot help but to love his characters. "

    " 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. "

    " I love this series! Amazing world building, interesting plots and characters that grab hold and won't let go. This book (3rd in series) came out this July and I've reread all three twice since then. "

    " A bit uneven but a good last third took it from a 3.5 (but scored as a 3), to being scored as a 4. Book 3 of a complicated intrigue fantasy novel. There's politics and economics and pain and suffering. And it is a bit wordy. But worth reading. "

  • Overall Performance: 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5

    " I'm a fan of this author, particularly his fantasy novels, and really enjoyed the first two books of this series. This one seems a bit "wordy", and I got bogged down in a few places, but not enough to give up on the book. In general I really enjoyed it, and it really did get moving after awhile. "

    " 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. "

    " Pretty good conclusion to Rhenn's story...to be honest, I was surprised at some of the deaths that took place, didn't see them coming at all. As always, Rhenn does a great job of juggling all the different plots that he sees around him and connecting the dots. "

    " So I decided to keep reading, just to see if the third book would be any better. I was really wrong, the third book is worse. Sorry Modesitt, you have failed to keep me engaged. "

    " 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. "

    " 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. "
