2. Paladin Of Souls

By Lois McMaster Bujold (442 pp ebook)

I was reluctant but I started reading books on my phone and that has upped my reading a little bit. This is a sort-of sequel to Curse of Chalion Book #14 from 2016. The events of this book come after that book but the stories are self-contained. I loved them both. The world-building is complex, there's a lot going on and there is a romantic element which always makes me happy. Recommend.
