implausible but entertaining
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book was a flight of fancy that is highly entertaining. I found myself debating 'to sleep or not to sleep'. I carries a futuristic highly technically trained officer into a culture which has intentionally limited technology use without limiting the study and accumulation of that knowledge. Throughout the book the question of just what is human and why is interwoven between the interaction of the interlopers and their captors come allies. There are more than enough plot twists and suprises to keep anyone intrigued. It's the sort of story you know where it's going, mostly, but you surely don't know how the author will take you there. The parallels to the real Mongol Empire were interesting enough to have me seeking out historically accurate information about those times. A little heavy wading into the first part to get all of the background necessary but well worth the effort.
