The cipher kathe koja ebay
A cosmic adventure story of big ideas and murder. To support his family, a man submits himself to a solo science experiment in the High Andes. Then again, considering who else is being courted by the shadow council, maybe sociopaths are what they’re looking for.Ī contemporary classic from the Czech Republic. But it seems there should be a limit of just how cold your operatives can be before they’re more dangerous to the Empire than their worth compensates for. They are dealing in the bigger picture after all. Would the shadow government want actual sociopaths working for them? People with no empathy or consideration at all for others? Perhaps. It also occurred to me that this final test was similar to the test the rebels put her to when they demanded she kill the ship captain after stealing the tax money. And while their secret is dangerous for her, I’m not sure it’s enough to keep her in line. Without more leverage they can’t assure that she won’t work against them. In other words, I believe she failed their last test and they would have killed her as a potential liability (ie, she’s too powerful to let loose without a strong restraint, which they don’t have). With regards to the ending, while I understand that the shadow government has an important - and fatal - secret to hold as blackmail on Baru, I don’t believe they’d allow her into their ranks without something even more powerful to hold over her. Basically, I’m not sure that what the dukes were giving up is worth what they were getting, and some of the dukes were wise enough to be able to see that. And yes, I understand the whole point was to have a central rallying cry for the rebellion (and picked someone who’d already ingratiated herself to the peasantry via her loans), but surely they could have the troops cry their own dukes’ names, since their army at the end wasn’t integrated. Even if they thought they could use Baru as a puppet figurehead (and if they believed that they weren’t paying close enough attention to her personality and actions), they were still willing to give up a lot of power simply by having such a position created in the first place, having their people rally towards someone other than themselves. Isn’t that what they’ve already got with the Governor the Empire installed? Their new system would give them even less power than they currently have - and no real gain except for not being under the Empire’s yoke anymore.
THE CIPHER KATHE KOJA EBAY INSTALL
Considering the fact that even the Empire couldn’t remove their hereditary ducal positions, why would they want to do that themselves and install a ‘high king’ as it were, above them. I’m left wondering why the dukes, who are rebelling so they can return their country to their own power (as it was before the Empire showed up) would be willing to put one individual - and a foreigner at that - in complete control.
