We’re pleased to announce Penric and the Bandit, the latest novella-length adventure featuring Lois McMaster Bujold’s beloved characters, Penric and Desdemona.
Note: As with our most recent Bujold titles, we do not expect to make Penric and the Bandit available to large online retailers.
About the Book:
Strange company…
When Rozakajin, road-weary bandit and army deserter, spots a hapless blond young man in a country inn with an intriguing treasure map, he thinks he’s scouted an easy and lucrative victim. Attaching himself to odd traveler Penric seems simple enough, but when Roz’s old enemies catch up from behind, his plans take a turn for the much worse. When Pen’s claim that I never travel alone proves true in ways Roz never imagined, his world becomes more frightening still—but also much wider than he’d ever dared to dream.

From Publishers Weekly:
“In the thrilling 13th Penric and Desdemona adventure (after Demon Daughter), Bujold sends temple sorcerer Pen and Des, the demon who shares his body, on a quest to track down some valuable and long-lost magical writings. The combination of mystery, action, and ethical conundrums proves as enjoyable as ever. Bujold shows no signs of slowing down.”
