From Publishers Weekly
Interstellar fix-it men Gar and Dirk and their trusty computer, Herkimer, battle injustice again in Stasheff's fourth Chronicle of the Rogue Wizard (after A Wizard in War). On a long-lost colony world, Puritanism, "the haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy," has dominated the lives of the planet's citizens for a thousand years. To combat Puritanism and its Cromwellian Protector, who rules with an iron fist, Gar?aka Wizard Magnus Gallowglass?recruits dissenters such as Miles, who's fleeing from a state-mandated marriage, Orgoru, a quixotic misfit, and Ciletha, an embryonic feminist. Stasheff's usual wit is in sleep mode here, overwhelmed by gratuitously grisly torture scenes and heavy-handed injections from the Bill of Rights. Insipid characterizations and limp dialogue will enhance only the ennui likely to strike all but the most loyal Stasheff fans.

From Library Journal
The fourth book in the "Rogue Wizard" series finds interstellar liberator Magnus Gallowglass recruiting two star-crossed lovers to fight the tyranny and oppression of the Protector. Stasheff (author of the famous "Warlock" series) again provides plenty of action and political scheming. Recommended for collections with the series.
