two Paladins
Mar. 29th, 2022 07:53 pmI like to save Ursula Vernon books for when I need them, so, uh, yeah, that's how it's going. But they were of course all the things I wanted - funny and engaging and clever and heartwarmingly full of brave noble people. I reread Paladin's Grace because I wanted to remember what did and didn't get resolved about the heads (these are romances but there's also a lot going on with murders and such. rather more severed heads than in many romance novels.). Paladin's Strength is a more direct sequel - new couple but picks up some of the plot threads - while Paladin's Hope is a little more standalone (and also a new couple). I definitely recommend them all if you've liked any of the White Rat world books, or if you like Vernon in general, or fantasy-adventure romance at all. Strength is het, Hope is m/m. It sounds like Vernon is planning to do books about the remaining four paladins (we've now covered three of the seven), which, yay, and also I have high hopes that two lady paladins could mean getting both an f/f couple and a f/m couple with a non-fighting dude. Fingers crossed!
