Elizabeth Moon

In the three books of THE DEED OF PAKSENARRION, Elizabeth Moon swept us away to an extraordinary fantasy world and introduced us to Paksenarrion, a lowly sheepfarmer's daughter destined to become a warrior among warriors and a paladin beyond compare. But Paksenarrion could never have fulfilled her destiny had it not been for one who came before. Gird, the peasant. Gird, the armsman. Gird, the Liberator, who taught his people that they could fight - and win - against oppression. This is his story. Surrender None is the first of two prequels to the hugely popular DEED OF PAKSENARRION trilogy.

I read the Paksenarrion series and I was happy to find two more books set in the same universe. I was also excited to learn more about Gird. This book has been quite disappointing. 
It starts with a lot of violence. As the story progresses we learn more about Girt but the story skips large parts of his life. The other novels set in the universe had compelling characters and interesting political and economical background. I found these elements were lacking in Surrender None.
