Ruben Owl reviewed Paladin's Hope by T. Kingfisher (The Saint of Steel, #3)
Best book in the series so far
5 stars
Perhaps I'm feeling the romance between Piper and Galen more strongly than in the other books being a gay man myself, but I've enjoyed this book even more than the other two of the series. Interesting and quirky plot, well rounded characters... Highly recommended if you like romance mixed with crime and fantasy.
