Query: Asaro is the new Andre Norton

SPHERICAL HARMONIC is the 7 th novel in the Saga of the Skolian Empire and it lived up to and exceeded my expectations. Dehyianna Selei, the Ruby Pharaoh, tells the story in the first person. SPHERICAL HARMONIC is the direct sequel to THE RADIANT SEAS. It tells the story of a family and civilization rebuilding itself after a war that nearly cost them everything.
