About this listen

A six-year-old shiplost girl draws the kin Jurald family of Vilnoc into complex dilemmas, and sorcerer Learned Penric and his Temple demon Desdemona into conflict—with each other. It will take all of Penric’s wits, his wife Nikys’s wisdom, and the hand of the fifth god’s strangest saint to untangle the threads of their future.

A very interesting extension of Penric's journey in the world of the five Gods, and I hope for further tales of the characters, please Ms Mcmaster Bujold!

Always a pleasure to have another Penric and Desdemona tale to enjoy. They are always a delight and I hope this isn't the last.

McMaster Bujold at her best

No new ground was broken in this more recent offering in the Penric and Desdemona series. Bujold never fails to write well and I have yet to be disappointed in anything she has written, but a full length adventure with a lot of different locations and experiences would be welcome.

Usual skilful characterisation but a little tamer than others in the series
