Synopsis

Jame is one of the last of the Kencyrath line, born to battle a world-destroying Lord of Darkness and resuscitate
her ancestral heritage. Jame’s youth was spent hard and low in a desert wasteland. Now she has discovered her past and
her heritage as Highborn—and, with it, the power to call souls out of their bodies and slay the occasional god or two
(as well as to resurrect them).

First, though, Jame must survive the politics and dangers of haunted Tentir College, a school for warriors where
she’s a student. At Tentir, Jame saves a young protégé from possession by a powerful, evil soul in search of a body, while
combating jealous students who see her as a danger to their ambition for power and want her expelled—and blinded
and dead, in the bargain! To make matters worse, she’s challenged to a mounted combat duel to decide who is Tentir
“top gun”—a competition she must win to graduate. It’s trial by fire, as Jame moves closer to a magnificent destiny she
both fears—and knows she must face.

I'm working my way through this entire series and I *think* I read this one before, but I'm not seeing it on my lists. At any rate, it you're already engaged with the series, then you should read this one, but start with "God Stalk" if you're new to this series. Paradox builds a bit on the last book......more

Goodreads review by Assaph on October 31, 2018

I've recently decided to re-read this excellent epic fantasy cycle, and review as I go. What to Expect Honor's Paradox details Jame's second half of the year as a randon cadet. Expect more adventures, more native forces and power struggles, and further advancement of the overall story arc. It's great......more

Goodreads review by Richard on February 16, 2013

My biggest problem with the series is that it's come to a screeching halt ever since Tentir. The pace of events seems to have just stopped dead and while we can see where the series is heading it feels like it's going to take forever to get there. This is book 6 of a series started in 1982. I enjoy......more
