The essential story of this book is<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">very simple. The main character (Michael) is forcibly drafted by the Elves (Sidhe) to<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">learn magic. It&#8217;s a traumatic experience. But that&#8217;s not the strength of the book. <\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"calibre1\"><b class=\"calibre2\">Bear generally writes fairly hard SF. The magic here has some interesting physics to<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">it! But the best thing is the history. Bear provides a detailed history starting at the<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">beginning of time. Not exactly with quarks either. This extremely complex history of<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">the 5+ sentient races on Earth drives the whole story, and you learn that history a<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">piece at a time through the two books. Why is Michael drafted by the elves? You<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">find out by the middle of the second book. This first book would not be satisfying all<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">by itself. You need the second also. If you like friendly elves, this is not the series for<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">you. Most of the elves here are cold, cruel, and callous. Why? That&#8217;s part of the<\/b> <b class=\"calibre2\">history! <\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"calibre1\">The Infinity Concerto<\/p>\n<p class=\"calibre1\">Songs of Earth and Power Vol. 1<\/p>\n<p class=\"calibre1\">Reviewer:   This is the 1st book of a 2 book series.
