The Sharing Knife: Legacy
Finally, the second part of Lois McMaster Bujold’s two part fantasy series. And best of all I borrowed the book so I didn’t have to spend any money. Ka-ching.
These two books have been interesting reads; enjoyable but different. Bujold is a great writer, world and character builder and so far all of her books have been good. But these two each resolved a bit different. In most sci-fi/fantasy books there’s a big evil to defeat and then very slaps themselves on the back on goes on their merry way. In the Sharing Knife books, there is a bad guy defeated, but it’s almost secondary. It happens well before the end of the book and there’s not a big dénouement where everything is resolved.
It was an interesting way to structure the stories. But while I liked them, I don’t think I’d want all of her books to follow that pattern.
And I really could use another Vorkosigan book.
Edited to add; upon further reading it appears there will be at least one more Sharing Knife book.
