56 ratings3 reviews
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Reading a book in the Imager series is much like watching a chess game. The individual characters are rather wooden, but the tactics and maneuvers are interesting - and the board is exquisitely detailed. Antiagon Fire is mostly military fantasy with the same kind of political manipulation we've seen in the previous books in the series. I can't say I like any of the characters. I don't find them or their goals admirable in any way, and the protagonist's aim of forced conquest of the continent calls to mind a philosophical position (peace through war) that does not sit well with me personally, but I keep reading these. The books have a cast of thousands (it seems) and the setting is rich in details, although at times this may be too much of a good thing. If you've read the others, you'll want to read this.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is the fourth book in this part of the Imager Series. We are still focused on conquering the entire continent, and so we see once again the formula that Modesitt employs. We can't succeed at conquering all of the world. A few of our friends die along the way, a few others pose a challenge. The enemies our hero knows to exist go unchallenged. The King is manipulated along the way. It is a formula we have seen throughout the three previous books. And so we are used to it. There is a weird pacing of speed in some areas, and then lethargy in other areas. That some things can happen quickly, while others move slowly through the army on campaign. Certainly as students of WWII we would have seen some the same. Lighting strikes and slow consolidations. Here the impetus that the series began with slows a little and the inability of our hero to really communicate all his thoughts just further causes a distance for us to place our own words into his mind. For that it could be better. For that a series that could have been wrapped up by now, it could have been better.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Yet one more good addition to the Imager series. Nothing new, just what was expected, but a good book best read in its proper order.
