The Spirit Ring by Lois McMaster Bujold
3.0
Probably more like 2.5 stars. I've enjoyed some of Bujold's other fantasy and sci-fi novels but this one seemed a bit dated for me. Maybe it just reminds me of books I read when I was younger. Also having a young female protagonist made it feel more like it was for teen girls than 43 year-old men.I also tend to like fantasy better if it's NOT set in the "real world" it makes the magic and other fantastic elements more believable for some reason.
I like the ending climactic battle, but got bored a lot before that. I would recommned [b:The Curse of Chalion|61886|The Curse of Chalion (Chalion, #1)|Lois McMaster Bujold|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1322571773s/61886.jpg|1129349] instead if you want to read something in the fantasy genre from Bujold.
