Book Description
======
From Publishers Weekly
In this sequel to The Curse of Chalion (2001), rich in sumptuous detail
and speculative theology, dowager royina Ista Dy Baocia undertakes a
pilgrimage to ease her soul-and finds instead that in Chalion, Bujold’s
handsomely crafted fantasy world ruled by Five Gods "just around some
strange corner of perception," a more dangerous fate awaits than she
could ever have imagined. Swordplay and sorcery sweep sensitive, sensible
40-year-old Ista into Chalion’s border stronghold of Porifors, where
enemy Roknari incursions and demons from the Fifth God’s hell threaten
Ista’s realm, held precariously at bay by the charismatic Arhys dy Lutez.
Ista’s romantic quest to save Arhys and his magnetic half-brother, Illvin,
teems with equal parts of unearthly magic and down-to-earth quasi-medieval
lore. Despite an occasional lapse into adolescent angst and spurts of
superficial dialogue, high fantasy fans should thrill at Ista’s spiritual
perils, while horse admirers of all ages should savor even Ista’s saddle
sores. This engaging installment of Chalion’s mythical history whets
the appetite for new marvels yet to come. FYI: Bujold has won both Hugo
and Nebula awards.

From Booklist
The eagerly awaited sequel to The Curse of Chalion (2001) continues
the story of the world of Chalion, though not strictly of Chalion, after
Iselle and Bergon have defeated one lot of enemies and celebrated their
wedding. Paladin of Souls focuses, however, on Iselle’s mother, Ista.
Three years free of the madness that kept her imprisoned in her family’s
castle, Ista is finally released from her last remaining duties by the
death of her mother. She undertakes a pilgrimage, but doesn’t get far
before she is overtaken by trouble, sorrow, need, and a host of other
adversities. Chalion is in trouble again, thanks to the plots, counterplots,
machinations, and follies of men and of gods, and Ista is perforce on
the front lines. Bujold couldn’t characterize badly if threatened with
a firing squad, and what really keeps one turning the pages is the fascinating
cast of characters–not that the plot is anything to sneeze at. Only
dedicated addicts of Bujold’s Vorkosigan saga will be miffed that she
has given us this book rather than that sf series’ next installment,
for Bujold is also head and shoulders above the ruck of current fantasists
as well as science-fictionists. Roland Green
