So for the Emelan series, I have only read the Circle of Magic quartet, which this is the third of. For whatever reason, Daja's Book was also the one I remembered the most and it's as great as I remember. The four students and their teachers go with Sandry's uncle as he inspects the northern area ...
By far the best so far in this series. We get so much more insight into Daja's character and background than the titular characters of either previous book.

I enjoy reading about Daja's interaction ...
Absolutely love this series. All the characters are wonderfully done! Besides Sandry, Daja is one of my absolute favorites.
