The Curse of Chalion by Lois McMaster Bujold
4.0

I'm a big fan of Bujold's science fiction books. This was my first of her fantasy series. It was well written with her usual focus on strong character development within twisted plots. I loved the lead Cazaril, a somewhat broken man who doesn't strive to do great deeds, but fate brings him to do them nevertheless. An interesting world, filled with Gods and Goddesses miracles that rise above the usual epic fantasy magical tropes. I can see why this series had so many Award nominations and am looking forward to book two of the trilogy.
