The Oath And The Measure is, na wat moeilijk te doorkomen hoofdstukken en een langdradig einde (heel beschrijvend en pas laat to the point), wel een aanrader als je meer wilt te weten komen over Sturm Brightblade en hoe de regelgeving van The Order zijn leven zowat domineert. Er zit ook nogal wat psychologisch materiaal in het verhaal. Echt schitterend. (
