Lois McMaster Bujold:
Is it my imagination, or should there be five Chalion novels? I mean, The Curse of Chalion is the Daughter's book, Paladin of Souls is the Bastard's, The Hallowed Hunt is the Son's — the hardcovers are even bound in the gods' colours — so are there two more planned for the Father and the Mother? Somehow I picture a murder mystery and something set in a plague hospital.

At one time, I had plans in that direction, but the books seriously failed to materialize. Really, both gods ought to be fraught with possibilities, but neither seem to be speaking to me. No juice.
At the moment, I'm finding Penric and Desdemona's slightly more comic tone to be more congenial. And their shorter lengths way less daunting and exhausting.

Hi there, I was wondering: do you have a "feel-good" book? A book you read when you feel down, a book which always make you smile? A book that gives you hope? Thanks for answering and I hope you have a good turnover of the year! And many many thanks for the books you gave us readers, they brighten the landscape :) Cheers, Edith
