Interesting context for ante (before) bellum (war). The word itself
initially conjures up visions of pre-Civil War Southern mansions in my
own mind.
Regardless of what antebellum initially conjures up, your usage
pushes-the-envelope (for me) and works in the end. The remainder of your
"Oath Forger" review conjures up visions of Mary Sue's big
poly-inverted, bodice-ripper fantasy IN SPACE. Just saying. ;0)
