Under Heaven - Guy Gavriel Kay

Wei Song, Tai's female Kanlin bodyguard is pretty cool (she keeps teasing him about how he'll feel better once he can visit one of the city's pleasure houses and she's a skilled fighter), but Li-Mei, Tai's sister, is awesome. She manages to act all cool among barbarians even though she's obviously freaking out inside.

 

Whenever I start thinking that the book is starting to flag, Kay kicks it up a notch. Now we have the threat of wolves!
