Paladin of Souls by Lois McMaster Bujold

I think I liked this even more than The Curse of Chalion. Ista works for me as a heroine; older, resentful of the gods and trying to find a place in her life that feels less uncomfortable. Alas for her the gods have very definite plans and aren’t shy about letting her know.

Heroic deeds! Sorcery! Saddle sores! Attractive men with [cough] drawbacks!

isn't it just the most awesome book? I love those two, but Ista just seemed so real!
