Absolutely love this series. Great for both young girls and boys.
[spoiler] First Test What I didn't like: What the hell was up with the sparrows? No seriously, what was with the sparrows. Every time they were mentioned, I had to roll my eyes. The only reason they were there was to lead Kel to the spidrens. They literally served no other purpose to the story. They...
When we started out in First Test, Keladry was a little girl aspiring to train as a knight. Page, which covered three years, took her through puberty. Now Squire, covering her four years of training as a squire under Sir Raoul of Goldenlake of the King's Own, she grows into a young woman looking anx...
I am a lady in my mid-thirties and I am blown away by how much I still love these books! Pierce really captures the magic of strong heroines, great storyline and true fantasy. The result is a set of books I can't seem to put down!This is a great third book in the series, Pierce does a great job of...

Kel has finally reached the moment in her training where she can be selected as squire to a knight--but what if no knight picks her? To her great relief, Lord Raoul picks her as his squire, and immediately thrusts her into a brutal training regime and equally tiring travel schedule with the King's ...

I'm sad that I only have one more to go!A lot of things happen in this book, but what fascinates me most is the stuff about the Chamber of the Ordeal. Throughout the book, Kel goes to touch the door of the...

A bit repetitious, especially as we're told 5 or 6 times thoughout the book just *why* Kelandry is no longer petrified by heights. I think we got it after the first time, thanks!Still a charming book though, and a quick and pleasant read. Probably my favourite of the lot as it's more diverse than th...
