Haunted Mousillon. Cursed Mousillon. I've heard those names a lot, but now I have seen why. Calard's strength and faith are more formidable than ever, but he will need them both and more.

Another solid outing with a devious and deadly foe, and we learn what became of Garamont and Calard's family and loved ones since he embarked on the quest for the Grail six years ago and across half a world. None of it is good, and Calard continues to see the terrible price of service to his goddess - it will demand that he continue reckon with his past sins and regrets, and the cost is high indeed.

There are far worse things to lose your family to than death.

We follow Calard and Chlod on the quest for vengeance, in an inhospitable land. The quest itself was fun to follow, with interesting characters along the way. However the ending left a little wanting, the build up in the last few pages felt like it could of amounted to a much greater ending.

Still a great read though!

A good set up for the final book

Average in the beginning, with generic plot and workmanlike prose, it improved for a while (the place descriptions are pretty neat), only to devolve into borderline illiterate climax. Not an impressive introduction, I must say.
