About the Author:
From Booklist:
Hugo-winner and historian Harry Turtledove is equally renowned in science fiction for his rigorously thought-out alternate history novels and in fantasy for his tales of the supernatural placed in historically accurate settings. For Baen, he has written The Case of the Toxic Spell Dump, and the popular "Gerin the Fox" series, Wisdom of the Fox and Tale of the Fox. He has also authored the Ingram bestseller Guns of the South and the genre bestsellers in the "World War" series for Del Rey.
Great Harry's latest Videssos novel is somewhat, but not altogether, grim in both plot--usurpation and civil war lead to devastating barbarian conquests on the outskirts of the Videssan empire--and the development of the main character, Rhavas, a prelate of Phos. Rhavas has ecclesiastical ambitions yet is a true believer in the god with the great and good mind. He stands up for his beliefs when barbarians besiege and sack his city. But the horrors he sees and the crimes he commits during the fighting, and the discovery that he has the power to fatally curse his enemies, lead him into the heresy of wondering whether the god with the great and good mind is stronger than the evil power, Skotos. His logical examination of this idea leads to a great deal of trouble for both himself and Videssos. Dr. T can't write a bad book, and this novel is quite intriguing, if less amusing, than many of the 11 previous Videssos books. Frieda Murray
