My daughter is a Huge fan of this whole series. Tamora Pierce is up there as one of her favorite authors. She started reading these books when she was 12. It is nice to have a strong heroine who has adventures and is not typecast into the "girl" role of makeup, clothes and gossip.

The 3rd book in the Lionness Quartet moves the knighted Alanna out of the comfort zone she's developed in the capital and into the desert lands as she deals with the events of her Ordeal and what it truely means to be a Gifted female knight.

This book is more a story of personal growth than an adventurous build to an epic confrontation, as book 2 was. But that is not to say that either the magical or sword fighting elements are missing and things that begin building here lead into the deft plotting of the 4th book.

I have really been enjoying this series as it’s a quick read but full of imagination. Even though the author isn’t as descriptive as some are for individual scenes, her concisiveness makes for a fast-paced read that still leaves you eager to find out what will happen next, but not leave you in angst over it for several hundred pages.

The third in the Song of the Lioness Quartet, the story just keeps getting better and better! Conflict is leading us into what I hope will be an adventurous finale!

3rd book in the series.

Amazing read by a wonderful author. Tamora Pierce fan must read quartet!
