Uplifting Fantasy Romance

Paladin’s Grace

Is a heartwarming fantasy novel by T. Kingfisher, which is the pseudonym Ursula Vernon uses for her works for adults. It takes place in a medieval alternate world that features magic, knights, and various gods. Chief among those in this work is the White Rat, whose Temple is central to this tale.

Stephen is the titular Paladin. Unfortunately his god, the Saint of Steel, has died. This unexpected loss has left him and the remains of his brotherhood empty inside and bereft of purpose. The Temple of the White Rat has taken them in, given them a home, and attempts to help them heal.

Grace is a perfumer who comes from a difficult past. She has finally carved out a small life for herself, she has a small shop and a decent business. The main excitement in her life comes from the adventures of her landlord and friend who might be a spy.

Then these people get caught up in unexpected intrigue, involving the poisoning of a visiting prince. Meanwhile, murders are occurring on a regular basis. The heads of the victims are being found in the poorer quarter of the city. Both of these things will bring danger and the possibility of redemption.

Ms. Vernon says in her epilogue that she set out to write a fluffy romance, but it didn’t turn out exactly that way. Certainly, there are some horrific elements to this story, but there is a romantic subplot as well. It’s a overall uplifting novel, which has warm characters, dry humor, and a positive outcome. Definitely recommended!
