And when the host dies, the demon will jump to the next closest/strongest person.
If you haven’t read Bujold’s other novels in the World of the Five Gods, such as PALADIN OF SOULS (one of my very favorite books), then you’ll already be familiar with what makes a sorcerer a sorcerer: that the person is a host to a demon. En route his caravan comes across other travelers, including, unbeknownst to him, a sorceress who is having a heart attack. In PENRIC’S DEMON ( Amazon), we’re first introduced to the light-hearted Penric, youngest son of a minor noble family, while on the way to meeting his bride-to-be. I just finished listening to all six on Audible and I’m here to tell you that they’re worth your time, and reader Grover Gardner enhances the story the way a reader should. PENRIC’S DEMON is the first story in a 6-novella series (so far? hopefully there will be more?) written by the amazing Lois McMaster Bujold.
