A review by katmarhan
Wellspring of Chaos by L.E. Modesitt Jr.

4.0

I had to look up where in the overall history of the Saga of Recluce this book fits, especially since the last couple were actually the earliest in the internal timeline. This one jumps forward about 1700 years, and it took me a while to remember all the things that had happened (and had not yet happened).

This book starts with a bang, then settles into its main narrative. It seemed like there was less whining than in some of the books, and more action. I hope we return to Kharl's story (have not looked ahead to the next book to see if it follows this one closely in internal chronology) because it seems he has unfinished business with his sons, Jena, and Egen.
