COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Strong female characters submitted by basketcasemom on August 28, 2013, 8:22pm Great series for teens and YA. Tamora Pierce has strong female characters without making them into unbelievable cartoons.

Great start to a great series submitted by audreyh on June 13, 2015, 1:02pm This was the first book by Pierce that I ever read, so it will always have a special place in my heart. I was immediately enthralled with Daine, her emerging powers, and the epic conflict she is caught up in.

Really cool submitted by a0710 on June 28, 2018, 9:11am I'd never read a novel by Tamora Pierce and I loved this one! The magic system is really cool, and the mystery of what Daine is really draws you in.

Great submitted by zmclaugh on July 29, 2018, 10:50am I love the magic in this one and Daine is a great main character. This series was my favorite of Pierce's for a long time.

Fun Fantasy Novel submitted by MollyWiding on July 31, 2020, 3:54pm What little girl doesn't want to talk to animals? This book is cute and fun but also touches on serious topics like child abandonment. It's a sweet story and a good start to the series.

Great YA Series submitted by blancharddana on July 19, 2021, 10:29am Entertaining read, touches on heavier themes as the series progresses. If you want a cute escape into a fantasy world, this is a great book.

Strong heroine submitted by msi61 on June 11, 2023, 11:13pm Talking animals, a young woman’s coming of age, fun fantasy. One of my favorites in all her books!

Another great heroine submitted by denisekim on July 23, 2023, 8:54pm Daine is completely different from Alanna, but is just as inspiring a heroine. Tamora Pierce builds a fascinating world where Daine can communicate with animals and advocate for them while saving her community
