Against the Light by Dave Duncan

3.0

A not bad fantasy read, though given the call out reference to the "Gunpowder Plot" I have a feeling that others more knowledgeable would find it derivative. But it was an enjoyable good read. This is a world with a hidden religion with various psychic powers versus the corrupt established religion. Yet the plot moved along and the characters were interesting. The system of magic was interesting if not as intricate as I prefer. A good read though. 3.5 of 5.
