![]() ![]() Kel has survived four years as a page, and is moving on to being a squire under either an active duty knight or a desk knight in the palace. Genre: ( Young Adult) Fantasy / Magic / Adventure ![]() This first book in the quartet has plenty of action and adventure, and allows us to revisit good ol’ Tortall while getting us familiar with the new characters. Her tenacity and firm belief in doing the right thing particularly stand out in my mind, since the plotline allows those characteristics to shine through. I fell in love with Kel and her gang in this book – Kel is so different compared to Alanna in that Kel is quieter and more “average” in terms of looks, so maybe that’s why I could relate with her more. Kel is determined to show everyone that she can make it, and in the process, gains some valuable friends and makes some enemies too. ![]() However, she’s been put on probation by the training master, and has to handle bullying from the boys and being at a physical disadvantage. Long story short, the realm of Tortall is finally accepting its first girl into the knighthood training program in a hundred years ( Alanna didn’t count since she hid that she was a girl), and ten-year-old Keladry of Mindelan stepped up at the chance. Genre: ( Middle Grade) Fantasy / Magic / Adventure ![]()
