Description

From Hugo Award winning author T. Kingfisher:

Marguerite Florian is a spy with two problems. A former employer wants her dead, and one of her new bodyguards is a far too good-looking paladin with a martyr complex.

Shane is a paladin with three problems. His god is dead, his client is much too attractive for his peace of mind, and a powerful organization is trying to have them both killed.

Add in a brilliant artificer with a device that may change the world, a glittering and dangerous court, and a demon-led cult, and Shane and Marguerite will be lucky to escape with their souls intact, never mind their hearts…

    Excellent continuation of the Paladin series. It returns much more to the themes of the Clocktaur duology than any of the previous Paladin books—bringing back one minor character and discussing or referring to others; the Dreaming God and his paladins play a much larger role than in any of the previous Paladin’s. It’s very much on a par with the others in terms of humor, romance, and plotting, so if you like the series and the world they’re set in, then you’ll probably like this one as well. The mystery of the Saint of Steel is not resolved, giving promise of future installments. Weirdly, there’s a complete lack of gnoles in this book—not even discussions or casual mentions. They formed such an integral part of the story in the two Clocktaur books, in Swordheart, and in the 2nd and 3rd Paladin books, that their absence is surprising, especially after the most recent book, and especially that pretty much the entire cast is of already-established characters. Ms. Kingfisher, where did they go?

    •flails around gibbering• Okay, there's the A plot! And the B plot! (Which one is which, the romance or the "save Marguerite's skin," is up to the reader.) And then there's the plot that's threading with all the others just a tad and that's picking up speeeeeed! In the last bit. •screams and flails more• Paladins are fun and sometimes numinous and sometimes very not and WELL. If you love or hate paladins in games or other books, you should read this series because you'll probably get some use out of these 'dins.
