Well, about the first 2/3rds cover events we already know about, but from different perspectives. I didn't like the very first scenes where we're introduced to some new characters
Spoiler:
only to have them killed off for some cheap pathos moments later.


But overall it was OK, and I will still be buying the next ones in the series.

Then I bought and read Penric's Mission by Lois McMaster Bujold.

Excellent. A splendid novella in her Five Gods universe, featuring the wonderful Penric and Desdemona. But read the first two (Penric's Demon and Penric and the Shaman FIRST!

I highly recommend anything by Lois McMaster Bujold. I've read all her books, and I've at worst liked them. Most of them I've loved.

Next up: Grantville Gazette #68.
