A great novel for anyone who told they couldn't do something, and made it their mission to show the world they could.
I really enjoying reading this series. I am normally not a middle grade or YA reader but have still wanted for some a long while to dive into Tamara Pierces world. I debated starting with some of her later levels but in hindsight I am glad I started at the beginning.
This novel takes place about a year after the ending of the 1st novel and our main character is still trying to navigate their desire to become a knight while making sure not to reveal a secret that can ruin everything.
I love Alan/Alanna as a character they are very strong willed, determined and driven. It is refreshing to read from a young character that is not easily swayed but romance or unnecessary distractions
This is a book about someone who knows what they want in life and is willing to make tough choices to make that happen.
I also enjoyed the way relationships develop and grow between the main character and their companions.
These are really fun, quick books and I know the world will only get bigger and more expansive from here.
