  • The Curse of Chalion
    • Rated 5 stars

    “The Curse of Chalion is a riveting novel written by the world renowned Lois McMaster Bujold. The novel is about a man named Lupe dy Cazaril, an ex-knight who returns home to the Kingdom of Chalion, he is broken and tired, after being betrayed and spending more than a year as a galley slave in a nearby land. He is quickly assigned as a tutor and secretary to his old noble patroness’ granddaughter Iselle the Royesse (Princess) and sister to the king. While in his new position, he discovers of a curse, casted on Iselle’s ancestors long ago. The curse had been passed down through marriage and birth and had eventually been passed on to Iselle. After the discovery, Lupe dy Cazaril (also known as Cazaril) is set on a mission to lift the royal family of the curse. Cazaril doesn’t only have to lift the curse, he also has to deal with many enemies, such as Dondo, the corrupt Chancellor and his older brother, who together are slowly corrupting the governments by bribes and threats.
    This book kept me hooked. The abundance of description is great and truly paints a picture in my head. I would recommend this book to both male and female readers. However, due to the complicated plot, I think it would be best t be above 14 years old to truly understand the story.
