Lois McMaster Bujold, Bernadette Dunne

Unable to overcome the bigotry of their own families in spite of the numerous hardships they have shared, Fawn and Dag set out to find alternative solutions to the perilous rift between their races, during which they acquire such motley companions as a pair of novice Lakewaker patrollers, a magically beguiled farmer boy, and a young riverboat captain.
