Donal Graeme was an odd boy, a condition he never outgrew. But he graduated from military school and went on to a career as an officer, as was the tradition of both his family and the planet he lived on, Dorsai.
Donal always seemed to know what was going to happen long before it became apparent to even the most experienced of people. He used his intuition to place himself where it would advantage his objectives the most. He made a lot of enemies, but he also won some devoted allies.
Eventually he rose to the one of the highest positions in the galaxy which put him up against one of the master manipulators, a man he had first encountered straight out of military school. And in the middle of it all was Anea, a woman who stole Donal's heart at first glance but who despises him with all her might.
I found this book quite boring. It is mostly battles and politics with a very tiny bit of romance thrown in. I just skimmed most of the battles scenes and the political mumbo jumbo. And even though it is not a long story, just a little over 200 pages in paperback, I just wanted it to be over. Tedious read.
