Outcasts of Order

Saga of Recluce Series, Book 20

By: L. E. Modesitt Jr.

Narrated by: Kirby Heyborne

L. E. Modesitt, Jr., continues his best-selling Saga of Recluce with his 20th book in the long-running series. Beltur began his journey in The Mongrel Mage and continues with Outcasts of Order, the next book of his story arc in the Saga of Recluce.

Beltur, an Order mage, discovers he possesses frightening powers not seen for hundreds of years. With his new abilities, he survives the war in Elparta and saves the lives of all. However, victory comes with a price. His fellow mages now see him as a threat to be destroyed, and the local merchants want to exploit his power.

There's only one way he can remain free and survive - he's going to have to run.

Solid Modesitt. Black raised as white finds place for himself and his evolving powers to control his own life. Opposes corrupt prefects, counsels and their mages

Another great book

Like the other books in this series, this is another great book. someday I will have to go back and read them in chronological order of the series. Rather than release date.

Solid Modesitt - characters you can care about

As other reviewers have noted, this book is building up to sequel. But, rather than being disappointing, I rather enjoyed the long, twisted journey and look forward to the next book. In vintage Modesitt fashion, the world and characters are painted in vivid detail. The story rises and falls and the characters stay true to their natures. Modesitt always makes me feel a part of the world and makes me care about the characters - this book is no exception. I hope the next book will come soon.

I love all these books

I like the simple ‘physics’ behind chaos and order. I also like the chronological evolution behind the references to other books.

Outcasts of Order

I love the way Modesitt writes books for adults that do not have sex in them. And the way the main character feels guilt for violence that he must do.
