Penric's Progress by Lois McMaster Bujold

Penric is a young man more interested in scholarly pursuits than most second sons of a borderline impoverished Barons.   He acquires a demon accidentally and has to learn what this means and how it will change his life.

I’m an admitted fan of Bujold so this review may be a trifle biased.  Her development of Penric as a character was admirably done.   You got a feeling of knowing the young man.   His adjustment to his situation was complex and the plots were entertaining.

This is a compilation of  Penric’s Demon, Penric and the Shaman and Penric’s Fox.

All three novellas were entertaining and I recommend them.

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
