The Prisoner of Limnos

3/5. Another Penric novella, this one (maybe?) concluding a trilogy about Pen's entanglement with a disgraced general and, more importantly, his widowed sister. Rather simple from a plot perspective, but the point of this one is to set up various examples of non-traditional marriages – the poly v (or possibly triad, it's unclear) is the simplest of them. It's all in aid of allowing some reflection on the prospect of marrying Pen, and thus also marrying the demon/twelve shadow personalities in his head. It's not very deep reflection, mind. This series continues to be froth more than substance, but in this case, and at this time, that's a plus.
