2020 book 10

Lois McMaster Bujold's Penric's Demon
This novella is (I think) set in the author's Chalion world, but I don’t remember those well and had no issues following it. It’s a light and mostly funny story about a young man, traveling to his betrothal ceremony, who encounters an ill old women—who promptly dies, leaving him to be possessed by her demon. Whoops. It’s mainly about his relationship with the demon, which I found very interesting and compelling. I’ll definitely read more in this series. A-.
