Lord of Order
Lord of Order Brett Riley 2021 ISBN: 9781945501425 (hardcover) IMBRIFEX BOOKS 437 pages 'Wow, what a concept!' Brett Riley has written a novel entitled 'Lord of Order' that is to me a cross between a thriller and a horror story. It is a novel that could be science fiction. This is the story of what would happen if New Orleans were a prison city. 'Lord of Order' is a futuristic novel that keeps things and ideas of the past. There are two to three groups in this story and they are known as Crusaders, Troublers, and Conspirators. It is also a book of having faith in yourself and your ideals. The main characters of Gabriel, Hobbes, and Boudreaux the Crusaders along with a Troubler by the name of Stransky who have a lot in common, but will need to work through their differences in themselves and New Orleans. Brett Riley has written a novel that is set in the future but has aspects of the past and present as keeping the names of famous sites, and characters having chores like citizens had in colonial times like gatherers and lamplighters. Professor Riley could use his novel in his courses to show comparisons and contrasts in setting and character.
