I LOVED the first two books in this series. Like, five stars, MUST READ, loved. I had extremely high hopes for this one, but it just didn't feel very connected to the other two. The plot was pretty stand alone from the previous, and seemed really exposition-y with the animals spirits, taking place in a different region, different characters etc. It started off well but just led to me skipping a lot to the end. I'm not sure what happened, I love this author but would probably recommend sticking to the first two of this series. Hoping she goes back to the series roots with the subsequent books. BIG FAN.

Craig Williams One of my co-workers had me keep an eye out for any new Bujold that came into work (I work at Half Price Books - a place you'd LOVE btw!). Since she normally didn't speak to me at all, I assumed attaining new Bujold must have been very important. After reading this review, I'm now convinced to give her a try:)

Mike (the Paladin) I had the same experience with this one. The first two are excellent while this one feels like she stretched the plot elements farther than they want to go. The religion had worked well in the first two, the characters were outstanding but here it just didn't work.
