The Adventure of the Demonic Ox, Lois McMaster Bujold. Another Penric novella! I was underwhelmed by Penric and the Bandit, but this one has POV from both of Penric's two preteen daughters (one adopted, with a demon of her own) which made it generally more enjoyable -- it was nice to be shifting the focus to the younger generation. I hope we get more books with the girls as they come of age. (Nikys is still trapped in domesticity but seems happy with it.)
