The Curse of Chalion by Lois McMaster Bujold

Description: Having already created a classic hero in the form of Miles Vorkosigan, and captured a cult following the process, Lois McMaster Bujold now takes up her prolific pen to produce an epic of the most fantastic magnitude. A brilliant and detailed landscape populated with illustrious and demonic characters, ushers the arrival of a hero for the twenty-first century.

Cazaril has seen more of the world than he ever wanted. He has been a soldier, a slave, a courier and courtier, and carries the graces and scars of all four to remind him. Now he returns to his childhood home with nothing more than the hope of a quiet retirement. What awaits him however, is a less peaceful, and possibly more dangerous journey than any he ever anticipated . . .
