A man has been chosen to keep the world safe from self-destruction by being allowed to live forever and control the fortunes of the world. The drawbacks of absolute power and perpetual dictatorship are downplayed in favor of the examination of life, love and death sacrifice for the greater good.
Well written and paced, nicely interweaves the stories and relationships of the five central characters. The writing style is consistent and measured, breaking a bit only in the last few dramatic pages.
