Lois McMaster Bujold: The Curse of Chalion (Paperback, 2003, Harpercollins Pub Ltd)

Review of 'The Curse of Chalion' on 'Goodreads'

Very elegant and gentle writing. However, she knows how to pluck those heartstrings somewhat fierce ;-)
One thing I didn't like, and that was because it was repetative from the Vorkosigan saga: The stomach/belly problems for the main character. Miles had something like that as well. It is sloppy writing to reuse that idea.
The book was a delight to read. The take on religion as a kind of magic well worked out.
