"Sent to Watch" by David Lebenstein is a science fiction story about the travel of emissaries from different planets to achieve specific missions for the confederation of which the planets are a part, investigating the level of technological sophistication of other civilizations and collating data on the advanced technologies and cultures of other civilizations. The plot is based on Waterloo's battle backdrop, where battle veterans just out of recent fighting are subpoenaed through ordinary channels. Under various different aliases, the interplanetary commission staff are dispatched as agents among the various nation states that exist on the individual planets of the known universe in order to gain intelligence on their progress.

This narrative centers on the adventure of one warrior, Svavapas, who, after the thing in Waterloo Battle, which was his first and open action, is assigned a cover job in England, Jamin collaborates with Colleague Vlaytork, and though his emotions turn in her direction, he realizes that her feelings are with another agent, which parts them apart. Nevertheless, they ended up together getting into a relationship, which is against what the confederacy should be for.

There were many things I liked in this book, most of which were tied to historic facts about the rise and fall of Napoleon. For instance, I found it fascinating how the author was keen on incorporating factual contextual episodes such as the Battle of Waterloo. In addition to that, the writer also portrays the political division, which was an ongoing issue among the Protestants and Catholics of that era. This helped me to have information on historical and cultural injustices that completely downtrodden the Irish under the repression of the English Protestants. Not only from the historical aspect, like the Battle of Waterloo, but also the book gives some, which is the imaginary part, but it is theoretically possible because it was created based on scientific discoveries.

As for dislikes, there was nothing to dislike in this book, though it may seem complex to other readers. For me, it was great. I rate this 5 out of 5 stars. The editing was exceptionally great, without a single error. I recommend this book to lovers of historical fiction.
