Another outstanding romance

T Kingfisher has become an autopurchase for me anytime she releases a new book. This series of romance novels has very sensible characters who you can’t help rooting for. Her novels often have a darker side and it makes them even more intriguing. We got murderous bandits, a horrible city/state, werebears, berserker paladins, and the undead. I love the fact that her main characters are not teenagers and are more relatable for older adults. Read this as soon as you can. Read all of her books.

Never get enough

Deeply relational and compelling, imaginative and endearing - I love this mystery romantic comedy…perhaps more than any other.

Paranormal Romance

This is the second book in the Saint's of Steel series. Each book can be read as a stand alone. Each story is the adventure of a different Paladin. Themes include shifters, magic, and found family.
I listened to the audio version of this book. The narrator does an excellent job bringing the characters to life.

This is a delightful, witty fantasy. It is not an epic fantasy. This story is character driven. Even the secondary characters are well developed. The protagonists struggle with self worth in different ways adding to their depth. Who or what would you sacrifice for someone else? What are you willing to overlook? These questions add interest to the challenges they face.
This is a light, easy. read. The banter had me laughing. There are some sexual situations that are not descriptive and occur off page. I recommend these books after a heavy read or for a pick-me-up, it will certainly lift your mood.

Real, funny and Sweet

I love T. Kingfisher's books and the way that their er protagonists are always real people with a wry sense of humor and feelings and strengths and know who they are. this is probably my favorite of the three paladin books so far. Istvan and Clara are a wonderful match and I love the way the author managed to weave in horror without you really even realizing it.

Great story, very different from the first one

I found the first book so-so and almost didn’t continue the series, but I am very glad that I read this one. The story is extremely interesting - romantic, suspenseful, good lore, the works. I love the characters, too.

the Adventures of Istvan the mighty

This book just like the previous one is what I imagine what being a Paladin with a dead God would be like. having the survivor's guilt whole carrying on with life to find a new purpose. Beautifully and hilariously written!
