The Wanderer's Mark by Beth Brower - Book Three of Imirillia

 This is something I have never done before. The library had book 3 weeks before book 2. So, I went ahead and read book 3! Next I'll read book 2, now that I know how it all ends. Of course I suspected that Eleanor would end up with Prince Basaal, and she did, even though it was a rocky road to get there.

This book had a lot more action and characters than book 1, since Eleanor was escaping from Imirillia and then defending Admogen. It was interesting and not as slow. Still, it was rather predictable, but I enjoyed the "Illuminating God" and the spiritual scrolls. It was neat to see Basaal purify himself, and wrestle with the impossible choices he had to make. I enjoyed it. But it's not my usual genre, although it was more enjoyable than any other fantasy I have read. Or tried to read! Now on to book 2! There are a few characters I need to learn the backstory of!
