What's it about? A young scholar priest, simply, who is sent on a quest of enormous significance... extreme peril - check, love interest - check, alien races - check, complex political situation - check, high action - check, sheer stultifying beauty - check, humour - check, anything missing - nope. The perfect book if you love a story with real, tangible depth and flavour you can really savour... don't rush reading this, take your time.
