Summary

Bastard’s Eve is a night of celebration for most residents in the canal city of Lodi - but not for sorcerer Learned Penric and his Temple demon Desdemona, who find themselves caught up in the affairs of a shiplost madman, a dangerous ascendant demon, and a very unexpected saint of the fifth god.

This novella falls between Penric’s Fox and Penric’s Mission in the internal chronology of the Penric & Desdemona tales.

Beautiful

I'm indulging myself in a re-listen to all the Penric novellas in order. As this was released relatively recently this was my first opportunity to listen to it properly in the context of the novellas which fall before and after, and the development of Penric's character.

Just wonderful. Beautiful writing, beautifully read by Grover Gardner. A light story with three dimensional engaging characters. And yet even in this Lois manages to tap into real emotions more truly than any other author. A perfect little jewel.

Pity about the narrator. Like the author

Like the author, but I’m not desparate enough to listen to an irritating, out-of-date narrator.
