DAMMIT KINGFISHER!
She is now a repeat epilogue offender.
Also wow am I excited for this series to continue to build. I have so many more questions and I love how intricate the world is growing.
Also, since apparently Kingfisher can't write a romance without some gruesome murder (they are Paladins, after all), I appreciate that her solution to the Midsomer problem is that all of her stories are road trips.
Also Bishop Beartongue is AMAZING and the Rat's blessing is very...what it ought to be.
There's definitely a lot to unpack her about faith - not just the gods but in one another - but I am always so particularly fascinated by Kingfisher's theologies because her world imagines multiple gods, but they don't demand service except from those who take their oath. Which feels so different from a world like ours where everyone seems to think that if you can just convince people to believe IN god, you're done.
Belief is the start for Kingfisher. Obligation and covenant and faith are what makes the divine-human relationships interes--Oh no wonder I find this compelling.
Huh.
