About this listen

In his 30th year, Penric fell in love with light.

Learned Penric, a sorcerer and divine of the Bastard's Order, travels across the sea to sunlit Cedonia on his first covert diplomatic mission, to attempt to secure the services of a disaffected Cedonian general for the Duke of Adria. However, nothing is as it seems. Penric is betrayed and thrown into a dungeon, and worse follows for the general and his kin.

Penric's narrow escapes and adventures - including his interest in a young widow - are told with Bujold's remarkable energy, wit, and humor. Once again, Bujold has created unforgettable characters and a wondrous, often dangerous world of intrigue and sorcery.

I love all Bujold's writing, and Grover Gardiner's reading is smooth and nuanced. An excellent novella in the Five God's series.

I love how the “pair” get out of scrapes together. They each work to their strengths and neither is too overbearing as to impose their will on the other.

Penric and Desdemona - a formidable team
