To Ride a Rathorn by P.C. Hodgell

This is the 4th book in the God Stalker Chronicles. I picked it up off my shelf and began reading it after learning that one of my favorite authors (Stross) is also a fan. So, what's it about?

Jame makes it to Tentir, effectively the Kencyrath military academy for Highborn and Kendar. Jame, being Jame, arrives among calamity and destruction, oddly procedes to win friends in her usual manner. She also begins to bang against what being an officer and leader among the Kencyrath means. She also runs flat into a old vendetta no one will tell her about.

After a lot of bumbling, she does get to the bottom of the vendetta, the reason for the assassination of the Knorth highborn women and even makes two forms of peace with those who would be her enemies. And, her unusual status that came about at the end of Seeker's Mask is touched on and seems to be pointing to a big resolution at the end of the fifth book of the series.

I liked it a lot and will reread the other three books, and the fifth, Bloodbound when it comes out.
