Publisher's Summary

In this sequel novella to Mira's Last Dance, Temple sorcerer Penric and the widow Nikys have finally reached safety in the duchy of Orbas when a secret letter from a friend brings frightening news: Nikys's mother has been taken hostage by her brother's enemies at the Cedonian imperial court, and confined in a precarious island sanctuary.

Their own romance still unresolved, Nikys, Penric, and of course Desdemona must infiltrate the hostile country once more, finding along the way that family relationships can be as unexpectedly challenging as any rescue scheme.

An enjoyable conclusion to Penric and Nikys' story

This novella completes the story of how Penric met and finally wins the love of his life - Nikys. I have all six of the Penric and Desdemona novellas, three of which are set before Penric's ill-fated mission to Cedonia, and have listened to them multiple times. Lois McMaster Bujold writes great stories with pace and humour and Grover Gardner is the perfect person to read them. I wish there were more!

The one when Penric rescues the mother of Nikys

More lovely world building. I love (nearly) everything this fabulous author produces. I really like the Penric/Desdemona relationship - unique and funny. Hoping we see more of Tanar the bodyguard/companian/mentor.
