How is the Chalion series? I love the Vorkosigan saga but I've never read any of Bujold's fantasy. I got kind of fixated on the fact that I have a god of bastards in something I've had on the backburner for many many years and thus put off reading them. I'm sure we are not the only ones to have such ideas and I realize the rest of my thing is much more derivative of LeGuin, but it just stuck on that point for me.

I'm obviously not cbrachyrhynchos, but: they're really, really good. Honestly, I think they're better than the Vorkosigan books. The worldbuilding is decent (albeit very straightforwardly based on medieval Europe) and the characterization and plotting is top notch. The Curse of Chalion is good, and The Paladin of Souls is very good. I really love some of the stuff Bujold does with the divine and the human characters' relationships with the gods, in particular; it's really well done.

I think they're good enough that I've read them twice. Hallowed Hunt loses quite a bit of steam, but Curse and Paladin are strong.
