Paladin of Souls was very much a book for women, which is sort of hilarious for me to say in the context of that entry I just made about the gender binary, but it's not a book about a Big World-Saving Plot, it's definitely the book of her inner journey, her coming to own herself, and the Bastard.
You might actually enjoy The Hallowed Hunt a lot more than I did, come to think of it.
I had a similar experience with The Diamond Age. It's a lovely RPG setting, and he outlines the whole of it very well, but the parts of it feel very disconnected. (Or perhaps that was because I mostly read it while half out of my mind on sleep dep and caffeine in college.)
