Every day he thinks about not getting up, and every day he does it anyway. Stephen is a paladin whose god has died and left a blank space in his soul. Stephen stared at the ceiling of his room and thought, as he did every morning, about simply not getting out of bed. Some time later - never mind how long precisely - I got the energy together to actually open the book. So, I one-clicked it even though I knew I might not be able to read it for a while. They’re standalones, but they’re all set in the same world as this one, and I loved that world. (Side note: The ebook was released before the print version, which just came out on April 28th.) I’ve been a fan of Kingfisher’s work for a long time, especially her more romance-adjacent fantasies, Swordheart and The Clocktaur War duology. Kingfisher had released a new book, Paladin’s Grace. In the middle of my reading slump, I saw on Twitter that T. Serotonin? In this economy? My brain thinks not.Īs a romance reviewer, this is A Problem. It’s hard to connect with Happily-Ever-After when we’re in the middle of Disastrously-Right-Now. I’ve been having a hard time reading this year because of, you know … (*jazz hands*) everything. This is partly because it’s very good, which I’ll get into later, and partly because for me, it was the right book at the right time. The first time I read Paladin’s Grace, I finished it, turned back to the beginning, and immediately read it again.
