Masquerade in Lodi (Penric & Desdemona Novella in the World of the Five Gods)

by Lois McMaster Bujold

Overview

Bastard's Eve is a night of celebration for most residents in the canal city of Lodi -- but not for sorcerer Learned Penric and his Temple demon Desdemona, who find themselves caught up in the affairs of a shiplost madman, a dangerous ascendant demon, and a very unexpected saint of the fifth god.

This novella falls between "Penric's Fox" and "Penric's Mission" in the internal chronology of the Penric & Desdemona tales.
