Publisher's Summary

The Saga of Recluce chronicles the history of this world with world-building detail and an ingenious and disciplined magic system. L. E. Modesitt, Jr., returns to his longest and best-selling fantasy series with volume 19, The Mongrel Mage, which marks the beginning of a new story arc.

In the world of Recluce, powerful mages can wield two kinds of magic - the white of Chaos or the black of Order. Beltur, however, has talents no one dreamed of, talents not seen in hundreds of years that blend both magics.

On the run from a power-hungry white mage, Beltur is taken in by Order mages who set him on the path to discover and hone his own unique gifts and in the process find a home.

However, when the white mage he fled attempts to invade his new home, Beltur must hope his newfound power will be enough to save them all.

Another enjoyable story from Modesitt

I have been a faithful fan of Recluce for years. So I am always excited to see a new book in this world come out. I was not disappointed in any way. it's a instant classic in the style the saga has always been written in. ITs a good Read/Listen and well worth your time. Cant wait for the Next book.!!!!!

Wonderful Voice Acting and Storytelling

First time I heard this narrator, and what a great job he did retelling Modesitt!

Another Great Recluce Book

I've been hooked on the Recluce series since reading the first book and I always look forward to a new book in the series. This entry in the series does not disappoint. The narrator could have done a better job, however. The volume was rather uneven and the tone was not captivating.

The story is another "coming of age" but it is not a simple rehash of past stories. It brings something new to the table.

If you like the Recluce novels, you'll like this entry in the series.
