Enjoyed the links between this and [b:The Magic Engineer|185200|The Magic Engineer (The Saga of Recluce #3)|L.E. Modesitt Jr.|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1390152205s/185200.jpg|1246810]. Good to see the amount of thought that went into discussing the complexities of trade and government. Much more to it than I remember from the first time I read it.

Just love all of the Recluse books but really enjoyed these two giving the white wizards view of events told in Magic Engineer.

8/10
A bit heavy on the economics of trade and tariffs, but overall, a good read. It is interesting reading about some familiar events from another perspective, as this book continues to follow Cerryl, a White Chaos mage, while most of the Recluce series has followed the Black Order mages.
I do find that, even with the aid of the maps, I have trouble following the geography (and the various rulers) of different parts of Candar.
