Publisher's Summary
L. E. Modesitt, Jr.'s best-selling fantasy novels set in the magical world of Recluce have established a standard of entertainment in contemporary fantasy. Each Recluce novel tells an independent story that nevertheless reverberates though all the other Recluce novels to deepen and enrich the listener's experience. Now, in Fall of Angels, Modesitt moves deep into Recluce's past to chronicle the founding of the Empire of the Legend, the almost mythological domain ruled by women warriors on the highland plateau of the continent of Candar. He tells the story from the point of view of Nylan, the engineer and builder whose job it is to raise a great tower on the plateau known as the Roof of the World. Here the exiled women warriors will live and survive to fulfill their destiny. Here a revolutionary new society will be born...if Nylan can get the tower built and defenses in place before the rulers of the lowland nations come with their armies to obliterate them all. And if Nylan can learn to control the magical powers that are growing within him. Thus Modesitt relates the story of how magic comes into the world of Recluce, in a fantasy novel destined to please the growing Recluce audience and win new fans of the series.

Epic
My favourite of the series. Probably the 5th or 6th time through. My first from audible. Narrator is amazing. So glad he does all the Recluse books. Best narration of any series I’ve listen too.

An important installment to the stories of Recluce
I love this series. It is always amazing how much more I learn each time I re-listen. Great world building and a strong series of story arcs that feed the entire series.

Complex and compelling
Two opposing factions who are constantly at war from advanced space to regressing medieval technology. Added into are the ideals of patriarchy and matriarchy. And still the harsh desire to live at any cost. Simply saying this is a good read is an understatement. Audible 20 review sweepstakes entry.

Feminism through the view of a man.
Great battles and perfect twinge of perversion I have begun to expect from these novels.

loving this series!
L. E. Modesitt adds another GREAT book to the saga of Recluse. Kirby Heyborne gives his usual outstanding performance of voices, accents and voice inflections in all the right places. Doesn't disappoint!

Solid
I like these books. Mindless entertainment when I am doing other things. This one is good because it goes back to the beginning and demystifies the legend.
