matt reviewed The Curse of Chalion by Lois McMaster Bujold (World of the Five Gods, #1)
Review of 'The Curse of Chalion' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Exceptional!
I was already sold on Bujold after Shards of Honor, but this sealed it. Cazaril is a wonderful character, but more importantly this book is a case study in escalating the plot. Even divine intervention never felt forced but fit in neatly with where Bujold was taking the story.
