Lois McMaster Bujold’s The Hallowed Hunt
Now I know why I never bothered reading this before: it’s not as good as the first two in this series. It’s set elsewhere, and the only familiar characters are the gods. Now I did like a lot about this—I’m always here for the Temple divines and all the holy/magic stuff, and I liked the protagonist and his love interest as well. But on the whole this is just a darker, grimmer, sadder book. It wraps up in a satisfying way but it’s not one I think I’ll reread. B/B+.
