Orson Scott Card
When it is discovered that his is the voice that the Emperor has waited decades for, Ansset is summoned to the Imperial Palace on Old Earth. Many fates rest in Ansset's hands, and his songs will soon be put to the test: either to salve the troubled conscience of a conqueror or drive him, and the universe, into mad chaos.

It was good

It is an interesting read, but has very little merit overall. It is definitively the worst Card novel I have read. It got two stars instead of one, only because of the excellent quality of writing and the narrator's classic and reliable skill in performance.
Well-written but Vile

I selected this book based upon 2 things: searching for more things performed by Stefan Rudnicki and knowing Orson Scott Card can weave an incomparable tale.
I was not disappointed.
[there are potential triggers in this book as OSC does include some difficult and horrible things: c@ptivity, mutil@tion (not describing the actions of the horrific injury inflicted upon a character but alluding to it in an undeniable way), psychologic@l torm€πt (head games at their worst but NOT as something even remotely beneficial), a situation that could have been a precursor to a child being u§€d (the person with the inclination to harm the child was swiftly punished), and I'm sure I'm forgetting other important aspects alluded to or openly confronted in the course of the novel... but NONE of these things are EVER portrayed in a 'good' or 'benign' light - the evil of them is glaring]
I didn't move for 5+ hours when I started the book
