Tanya Huff's Sing the Four Quarters
Catching back up with classic fantasy series and I loved this one! It centers on a bard, whose brother the king exiled her from the family when she refused a political marriage to train to be a bard instead, and now she’s pregnant which is technically treason, oops (she is in a relationship with a woman but had a fling with a dude which is apparently fine, lots of cool queer characters in this, especially cool since it was written in the 90s). This is also a world where bards have magical powers to interact with nature spirits etc. Lots of great political plotting and families and friends and magic and love of all kinds. Just a really enjoyable read. A/A-.
