Tamora Pierce is a great author and this series is one of her best! I absolutely loved these books, even more than the Alanna and other Tortall books! These are keepers for me, sorry!

The last addition to Tamora Pierce's "Circle of Magic" series. A fun and engaging Young Adult novel.

Out of the 4 Circle of Magic books, i would have to say that this is the best.

This is a fine conclusion but not the best book in the series. Briar and Rosethorne (his teacher) are trapped in the city during a plague outburst. This book revolves around plague victims, healers and magicians racing to find a cure before everyone in the village is infected. Some very tense moments and some sad moments as well. This is a good story but drags down some with the cure research
