L.E. Modesitt, Jr.'s Cyador's Heirs continues his bestselling fantasy series the Saga of Recluce, which is one the most popular in contemporary epic fantasy.
Decades after the fall of Cyador, its survivors have reestablished themselves in Cigoerne. Young Lerial, living in the shadow of his older brother and heir Lephi, has a preordained future: He will one day command his brother's forces in defense of Cigoerne, serving at his older sibling's pleasure, and no more.
But when Lerial is sent abroad to learn the skills and wisdom he will need to fulfill his future duties, he discovers he is one of those rare beings who can harness both Order and Chaos. And as war finally engulfs the fringes of Cigoerne, Lerial's growing mastery of Order and Chaos is tested to its limits, and his own.

      The seventeenth novel in the saga of Recluce is set about a generation after the fall of Cyador. We learn that the last empress of Cyador got the surviving lancers and magi on the last fireship just before Cyad was destroyed. They settled in Hamor, and, using Cyadoran technology, have established the fertile enclave of Cigoerne, which is greatly coveted by their less fortunate neighbors. The story is told from the point of view of Lerial, the second son of the ruler of Cigoerne. Lerial is expected to lead his brother's forces one day, and this story is his coming-of-age as he works to strengthen his skills in arms, command, and the handling of order and chaos, and faces his first battle. This is not one of Modesitt's best novels in the saga, but it does show us a time and place about which not much has been written. It is certainly an encouragement to read Heritage of Cyador, the next book in the series.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2014, American Library Association.)
