Baker really thrives in shorter pieces: she's vastly less likely to get cutesy with her material. At its best this series is very, very good. Exemplary work. At its worst its still pretty good.

Quick and entertaining read. A little heavy on the western as sci-fi theme at times, but at least it was up front about it.

Baker, Kage. The House of the Stag. Tor, 2008. Lord Ermenwyr 2.
If you like sword-and-sandal fantasy that effortlessly blends the narrative patterns of pagan and Christian myths, you can’t do better than Kage Baker’s The House of the Stag. It tells the story of Gard, an orphaned half-demon, who escapes from slavery to marry a saint. I know. Spoilers. But they won’t spoil the fun because Baker has a droll sense of humor that emerges from the romance and adventure when you least expect it. Four stars.… (mais)
