"An exhilarating thriller . . . Stands alone, but is enhanced, by reading the previous two entries especially when the past comes home to roost. The story line is fast-paced while the locales are vivid. . . . A strong tale in which the hero knows he has come a long way, but learns how fast you can go in reverse." --The Midwest Book Review on Imager's Intrigue "Examines complicated social issues while managing to hold the reader's attention with a fascinating story." --Sacramento Book Review on Imager's Intrigue "Consistently intriguing in every sense." --Kirkus Reviews on Imager's Intrigue "The Imager Portfolio features some of the best characters Modesitt has ever created, real enough to make you consider what you'd do in their places." --Booklist on Imager's Challenge "Meticulous world-building.... The world is fascinating, and the Imagers themselves are extraordinary." --Romantic Times Book Reviews on Imager
