โฆ Synopsis
The Barnes & Noble Review
The Hallowed Hunt, the third novel in Lois McMaster Bujold's critically acclaimed epic historical fantasy saga (The Curse of Chalion and Paladin of Souls), revolves around two god-touched lovers thrown together on a quest to save a troubled kingdom from its heretical past -- and its bloody future.
After the exiled (and allegedly half-mad) Prince Boleso is brutally bludgeoned to death by a maiden he tried to defile, Lord Ingrey's kin Wolfcliff is sent to his estate to collect the body and bring both it and the accused murderer back to Easthome. But during the long journey, Ingrey and the indicted lady-in-waiting, Lady Ijala, find out they have much in common -- including forbidden animal spirits bound to their souls. Once at Easthome, a city brimming with political unrest because of the imminent death of the Hallowed King and an unclear succession, Ingrey and Ijala must find out who -- or what -- is behind the evil pervading the city
While it may seem impossible to top the previous novels in this saga -- The Curse of Chalion was nominated for the Hugo and World Fantasy Awards for Best Novel and Paladin of Souls won the Hugo and Nebula Awards -- Bujold has done just that. Although Bujold has written dozens of other noteworthy works (Falling Free, The Vor Game, Mirror Dance, et al.), this saga in particular has cemented her reputation as a storyteller extraordinaire.
