Aw, I liked this book a lot. I think Pierce's writing has improved somewhat over the early Alanna books. Not that it was bad before, but this is just delightful.The magic, especially, was great in this book. I loved getting to talk to the different kinds of animals and see how they think. Whales are...
While I like Diane, I'll never love her the way I do Alanna and Kel. I don't know why, and it's not really fair, but her story never grasped me the same way.

Once in Tortall, Daine discovers she has Wild Magic, which enables her to communicate and control all animals. Despit...
When I'm dog tired and distracted, this is my kind of escapist fiction. Sometimes you just had a long week.
