Review: The Sharing Knife Volume Two: Legacy (Sharing Knife) by Lois McMaster Bujold
Since the general consensus on this book's predecessor, The Sharing Knife Volume One:The Beguilement was that it was a disappointment, and uncharacteristically lacklustre for bujold, it's not saying too much to say this raised my opinion of the story slightly, but it did.
In this second book, Fawn finds herself in the position of a war-bride, viewed with suspicion by her husband's people, uncomfortable, and alone. As such, it's a decent story.
Pros: Polyandrous family unit! In-laws from hell!
Cons: Fawn remains pretty speshul and sue-like, and although I found it not too annoying, it was undeniably there.
