I just finished "The Hallowed Hunt," the third book in the Chalion series by Lois McMaster Bujold. For the first time in one of her books, I had a little trouble getting into the characters. It was almost as if the book was written by someone else in the style of Bujold. I'm not sure I would have even finished it if it had been by an author unknown to me, but I figured she has given me so much reading pleasure with her other works that I owed it to her to give it a chance. Did anybody else here find it vastly different from her other books as far as character development goes?
And please, if you haven't read Bujold, please don't let this keep you from reading any or all of her books. I've hugely enjoyed every other thing she has written, so it may have been that I was in the mood for a different kind of book this week. I'll probably try it again another time and see if my opinion changes.
