Story
Mikhail's power had only grown with every new day, and his Family was also flourishing. However, so were their enemies. New ones had emerged, and old ones who'd long ago written them off were now stirring. But really, was this a problem? He was a healer, and there was always a remedy, and mandatory "treatment" could not be stopped! Indeed, his enemies would pay handsomely for it. At least, whatever remained of them.

Publisher's Summary
Then, in a single moment, his entire life is transformed when his master patron is killed in a flash fire and Rhenn discovers he is an imager - one of the few in the entire world of Terahnar who can visualize things and make them real.
Rhenn is forced to leave his family and join the Collegium of Imagisle. Because of their abilities (they can do accidental magic even while asleep), and because they are both feared and vulnerable, imagers must live separately from the rest of society.
In this new life, Rhenn discovers that all too many of the "truths" he knew were nothing of the sort. Every day brings a new threat to his life. He makes a powerful enemy while righting a wrong, and he begins to learn to do magic in secret.
Imager is the innovative and enchanting opening of an involving new fantasy story.

One of my Favourites
This is one of the books by L.E Modesitt Jnr which I have re-read countless times. I would recommend this book for those who enjoy a slightly different type of fantasy. The author explores how magic interacts with politics and government through the eyes of a young man thrust in the midst of it. It's an engaging story, the politics are quite well written as the author spent some time working in politics. L.E Modesitt has his own style, I have found that some people enjoy it, some people don't but I encourage you to try this book. For those who have read his Recluce series, this book I find is similar to the ones he has written about the White Mages (Also my favourite Recluce Books!)

Disappointing
I was disappointed in this book and really didn't enjoy it. Some of the core ideas were interesting but I just couldn't get into the story. There was little character development, so you didn't feel like you actually knew them and hence felt no empathy for them. There was very little description in the text (apart from the food and wine strangely!) and overly long dialog between characters. I found the writing particularly clunky.
The narration was OK but not great. I guess he did the best he could with the material.
I persisted with the story after reading some other reviews that said the last section was quite exciting. Unfortunately I didn't find it so and wish I hadn't wasted my time!
I won't be reading any more of the series. After just listening to Patrick Rothfuss's 'Name of the Wind' and 'The Wise Man's Fear' perhaps anything I listen to is going to be disappointing...
