Traitor, Book 1 Of The Turner Chronicles

Chapter 3 opens with an introduction to Aaron's home world and Field's Everlasting life Militia. After a man is murdered during a training exercise, we learn of the Militia's plans for the newly discovered world, and we get an idea of just how little Aaron is respected by General Field and the other Militia officers. Part one of chapter four has Aaron once again receiving sword lessons from Sarah Townsend outside of town. Aaon proves inept. The lessons are halted when they see that they are being watched by a pair of savages. After walking back into town, Aaron stops at the inn with Sarah and learns a bit more about when the town was attacked by Movers two years earlier. He discovers that Cathy's parents were killed in that attack, and he hears a bit more about Talent and Talent Stones.
