By Heresies Distressed
by David Weber, 496pgs, hardcover,
Official Grade: B+
Series: Safehold book 3
Yea, things happen in this installment of Weber's Safehold series! Cayleb and his new bride Sharleyan don't get to spend much time together in this book because Cayleb is off to fight Corisande. And with Merlin's "visions" and the Charisians' superior arms/tactics, I bet you can guess how that turns out. Also we get another assassination attempt - this time on the new Empress. And more time watching the inner Group of Four slowly splinter. Weber simultaneously plows the plot forward, and sets up for future novels in the series. Sequel to 'By Schism Rent Asunder'.
