A review by mrbear
The Curse of Chalion by Lois McMaster Bujold

3.0

This was ultimately "very okay." It ended up being strangely religious, ridden with cliches, and featured an ending that was extremely obvious about halfway through the book. None of the characters felt believable, but were instead all extremely black and white, with the main character literally glowing like a blazing city for some of the book. I would never recommend it, even though it wasn't particularly badly written, and depending what the reader is looking for it may press the right buttons.
