Summary: Complex Plot --- Lots of Death
Comment: This is the first of Green's Twilight Of The Empire novels. This is the same Empire as that in the Owen Deathstalker books.

This story takes place on Mistworld in the city of Mistport. Mistworld is a rebel world and has been fending off the Empire for several hundred years. But now things are starting to get out of control.

Mistworld is a harsh world and the Empire's blockade has reduced most of the society to almost medieval levels. But there is high-tech and psionics. We meet thieves, con men, agents, investigators, council members and businessmen; a huge cast of characters for a 218-page book.

A lot of people die in this book but the death is not graphic. It is not a happy tale but it is well written and you will remember it. It is also quite different from the others in the series in tone and style.

This is a must-read for anyone familiar with Green's Empire novels but it also stands alone very well.

Rating: 3
Summary: Not a bad start
Comment: While this is not one of Green's better stories about the Empire, it is involving and introduces us to some great characters, such as Investigator Topaz. I just wish Green had spent more time in developing a satisfying climax.

Summary: Simon R. Green is a legend!
Comment: He has equisitely woven fantasy from all segments of world fantasia into some really great books, about Empire and Owen Deathstalker :) I certainly recommend his books to anyone. Kish.
