Kage Baker's The Anvil of the World
I liked Baker's Company series a lot, so decided to check out her fantasy trilogy, and I'm SO glad I did. This was funny as hell and super engaging. It's centered on a man on the run who takes a job leading a caravan full of mysterious characters; he's looking for a quiet(er) life but just can't seem to stay out of trouble. Especially when demons etc are hanging about—things just keep getting more complicated. I could have done with slightly less male horndoggery, but this had such good magical family squabbling AND found family camaraderie, what a fun read. A/A-.
