About this deal

All told, it was a very interesting exploration of humanity. Not perfect, but certainly thought provoking, just what the best SF is all about. Determined to be useful to his father for what little time he has left, Lanik sets off on a covert mission to spy on one of the neighboring families, which seems poised for uninhibited conquest of much of the planet. From there...Lanik's quest becomes more of an Odyssey. And one that traverses the manipulations of time, matter, and perceptions of reality. Lakeman, Geoffrey (2 March 1996). "James 'Rat' Hewitt... I hereby arrest you under the 1351 Treason Act". Daily Mirror. p.2.

Much has been debated and written about both the content of these Reports and the attitudes of their authors which to a large extent caused dismay and outrage and resulted in their publication becoming known as the TREASON OF THE BLUE BOOKS. (Government reports were bound in blue covers. ) Before I talk any more about the story, I should also bring up that this is technically not written in the OSC voice you're familiar with. It's in first-person... This is a totally personal preference, but I don't like his first-person voice, especially because I have basically no idea if I'm supposed to like Lanik Mueller. He's smarmy, whiny, and can't seem to figure out if he likes his breasts or not.Olga Kurylenko as Kara Yusova, a Russian spy and former SVR operative who is investigating the murder of five of her men. One of the last executions for high treason was that of John Amery in 1945, the last person in the United Kingdom to plead guilty to high treason. Treason is a revisitation of Card's second novel, A Planet Called Treason. By his own count, he has re-written about 10% of the novel, maintaining the plot and simply refining the storytelling. It does seem very evidently to be one of his earlier works, but I believe that works to the story's advantage. He says in his author's note at the beginning that

This is his second novel, which makes this quite a feat. He published 2 others the year this came out (1979?) too. That's a fantastic accomplishment. He does a great foreword in this edition, too. He's pretty religious now from what I've heard & this book seems to be a search for morality in the face of materialism, complete with Original Sin. Thankfully, there wasn't anything for his or any other religion which would have been a huge turn off.This is a fantastic historical novel for children. Just as much period detail as Philippa Gregory and a story with excitement, journeys, family, kings and beheadings. The last sentences of hanging, drawing and quartering were those on the Cato Street Conspirators in 1820; however the drawing and quartering were omitted by royal command. [ citation needed] Last one. There's a bit where he is in a cabin somewhere and he meets this girl who says that she's waiting for the right one. I honestly thought we were going to get something meaningful in this sexual travesty, but nope! Turns out, the girl is an old guy using some illusory science/magic and he makes his girl image naked, starts straddling Lanik so that she can get close enough to stab him. Through some science/magic that Lanik learned halfway through, he's able to freeze time and that allows him to see that the hot naked girl is an old guy...? And then I think he kills the guy - I really don't remember. In 1994, the book Princess in Love by Anna Pasternak, for which James Hewitt was a major source, alleged that Hewitt had a five-year affair with Diana, Princess of Wales [12] from 1986 to 1991. [13] Diana confirmed the affair in her 1995 Panorama interview. As she was then the wife of the Prince of Wales, heir to the throne, this fitted the definition of high treason, and a national newspaper briefly attempted [14] [15] to have Hewitt prosecuted for what was then still a capital offence. [16] But that's about all I can say. I would have enjoyed the science/magic more if it just went for it. Lanik pretty much becomes a god on Treason. I'm not sure if there's anything he CAN'T do.

I loved the idea of blowing up the Ambassadors & removing temptation. Suddenly all communication with the [false] gods was removed & all men were free to find their way to their own destiny. A British subject resident abroad also continues to owe allegiance to the Crown. If he or she becomes a citizen of another state before a war during which he bears arms against the Crown, he or she is not guilty of high treason. On the other hand, becoming a citizen of an enemy state during wartime is high treason, as it constitutes adhering to the sovereign's enemies. On This Day: Sir Roger Casement sentenced to death" 29 June 2022, IrishCentral.com (retrieved 23 August 2022).The Treason Act 1708, section 12 (disapplied from England by the Forgery Act 1830, sections 30 and 31). England was a Catholic nation, and the head of the Church was the Pope in Rome. All church services were held in Latin. Henry VIII did not believe in Protestantism, and he believed in marriage for life. He was a devout Catholic. But then he fell in love with Anne Boleyn. The Pope would not allow him to divorce his wife, Catherine of Aragon, and so Henry VIII broke away from Rome and declared himself to be Supreme Head of the Catholic Church in England, so he could do as he pleased. I was particularly impressed with the way in which Doherty sprinkled in a significant amount of well-researched historical detail, without overlabouring the point and weighing the story down, thus rooting the events firmly in their historical setting. to "move or stir" any foreigner to invade the United Kingdom or any other country belonging to the sovereign.
