This is the trilogy of books about Paks, under one cover. A very moving, realistic story of the trials and transformation of a simple country girl into a heroic fighter for good. Ms. Moon has real life experience with the military, and it shows in her writing. So you get to see the thought behind the battles, as well as a realistic description of the battles.

I was swept up by this book about a common soldier who works her way up through the ranks of a feudal society, ultimately becoming a saint.

I absolutely loved this book. I first read it when i was 16 and after 16 years I still enjoy reading it. Its a great example of when actual knowledge does for a book and is also a great example of how Paladins are chosen. A great read, time and again.

Probably one of the top 5 fantasy series I've ever read, definitely in the top 10. I've lost count of how many fantasy books I've read.

This is a good trilogy. It's very much a page turner and I enjoyed immensely.
If I had to find fault I would say that I found it odd that this book was written by a woman as her main character (a female) is very uni-faceted. Her preoccupation seems to be with besting the boys and clinging to her virginity.
But, all in all, a great read.
