        <dc:description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Review&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Fresh, intriguing, and as always from Lois McMaster Bujold, superb." Robert Jordan, New York Times best selling author of The Wheel of Time Series "Bujold continues to prove what marvels genius can create out of basic space operatics." Booklist "This is one of the great ones." Science Fiction Chronicle &lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Product Description&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lois McMaster Bujold has won the Hugo award four times, and the Nebula award twice. In this, her first epic fantasy, we join Cazaril -- a former soldier, and courtier who is about to embark on a perilous journey, rife with lethal treacheries, demonic magic, and scheming characters. Lord Cazaril has been in turn courier, courtier, castle-warder, and captain; now he is but a crippled ex-galley slave seeking nothing more than a menial job in the kitchens of the Dowager Provincara, the noble patroness of his youth. But Fortunes wheel continues to turn for Cazaril, and he finds himself promoted immediately to the exalted and dangerous position of secretary-tutor to the Iselle, the beautiful, fiery sister of the heir to Chalions throne. Amidst the decaying splendor and poisonous intrigue of Chalion's ancient capital, Cardegoss, Cazaril is forced to encounter both old enemies and surprising allies, as he seeks to lift the curse of misfortune that clings to the royal family of Chalion, and to all who come too close to them! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</dc:description>
