Summary
In this novella set in the World of the Five Gods and four years after the events in Penric's Demon, Penric is a divine of the Bastard's Order as well as a sorcerer and scholar, living in the palace where the Princess-Archdivine holds court. His scholarly work is interrupted when the Archdivine agrees to send Penric, in his role as sorcerer, to accompany a "Locator" of the Father's Order, assigned to capture Inglis, a runaway shaman charged with the murder of his best friend. However, the situation they discover in the mountains is far more complex than expected. Penric's roles as sorcerer, strategist, and counselor are all called upon before the end.
Bujold delivers an astonishing tale that is not soon forgotten.

Another short bite of a tale with the five gods
I am enjoying the development of Penric through these stories, and already looking forward to the next installment.

Penrick grows
I loved it
I particularly like the happy relationships with the gods.
Penrick has developed and likes to mystify the other characters.

A beautiful little gem of a story
Like all the Penric stories this is a perfectly crafted little gem, wonderfully read by Grover Gardner. Perfect to warm oneself by on a snowy February day.

A lovely novella
Personally, I enjoyed it. I like Grover Gardner’s narration, and I enjoyed Lois McMaster Bujold’s story.
