SuitabookKnights of Alcea
Richard S. Tuttle
- Reading
- Try the opening together, then check whether the treatment of violence and the pace of the secret-enemy plot suit your reader before continuing independently.
- Themes
- Returning to conflict: Formerly prominent Knights had scattered into private lives after warfare was thought to be over; violence draws them back into action. The outline sets up a return to a former role, but does not show whether the book celebrates, questions or complicates that choice.
- A threatened nation: Acts of violence spread across Alcea as hidden enemies advance a plan intended to crush the nation. The threat is presented as a danger, but the outline does not establish how the conflict or its opponents are portrayed in the full book.
- Worth knowing
- Acts of violence erupt across the country and warfare is part of the setting. How graphic these moments are, and whether anyone is seriously harmed, is not established.
