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

3 stars

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.
