The Sharing Knife: Complete Series: Books 1-5
(2023)(A book in the Sharing Knife series)
An omnibus of novels by Lois McMaster Bujold
The fate of their wide green world is balanced on the bone knives of Lakewalker sacrifice, yet all their subtle necromancy must still grow out of lives lived.
In this romantic fantasy saga, runaway farm girl Fawn meets Dag, a Lakewalker patroller, and both their lives are abruptly altered thereby. Fawn’s own confidence grows as she travels with Dag, learning about the supernatural malice his people fight. More mundane malice from unaccepting families puts them both on a much longer road, one that will take them to the edge of their world and back.
But not alone; their dangerous travels bring them extraordinary companions, Lakewalker, Farmer, and Caught-between. All learn from each other through peril and mystery as all their lives are enlarged.
The most important thing about quests, Dag decided, was not in finding what you went looking for, but in finding what you never could have imagined before you ventured forth.
*
This boxed set of the four-part novel includes the bonus sequel novella “Knife Children”, and a new introduction by Lois McMaster Bujold.
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy
