Watt-Evans, Lawrence Dragon Weather (Obsidian Chronicles) Tor Fantasy December 15, 20 0-8125-8955-6 / 9780812589559 Paperback Very Good Watt-Evans (Touched by the Gods, etc.) opens his latest novel with a bang: 11-year-old Arlian's village is destroyed by dragons, and he, the sole surv ivor, is enslaved by the minions of Lord Dragon. Raised as a mine slave, at 18 Arlian escapes into the arms of the inmates of the House of Carnal Soci ety. When that brothel is burned and its women abducted by Lord Dragon, Arl ian's quest for vengeance intensifies. Under the tutelage of a caravan guar d named Black, he learns swordsmanship and trading, and gains great wealth. Using the name Lord Obsidian, Arlian pursues both Lord Dragon's minions an d the noble owners of the Carnal House, but his hunt is deterred by two sha ttering discoveries: that vengeance is, after all, distasteful to him; and that his childhood encounter with dragons has made him like his enemiesAnea rly immortal, charismatic and eligible to join the ruling Dragon Society. A ny reluctance to pursue his vendetta leaves Arlian, however, when he discov ers that Lord Dragon is not only a sadist but possibly a traitor to the Dra gon Society. Watt-Evans's plot strongly resembles that of The Count of Mont e Cristo, but he turns it to his own purposes and produces a thoroughly abs orbing tale. His writing is clean of the purple prose that mars so much fan tasy, and the book poses many provocative ethical questions about the simil arity between the righteous man and the unjust. This novel showcases the un derstated excellence readers have come to expect from this durable and (too often) underrated author. Price:
