I have been disappointed in this series. It is a youth book, but it assumes that the reader is acquainted with religious orders and their ways, which is likely not the case if they are not a church-educated Catholic. It spends too much time touting that part of the story and not enough on character building. The people in these books are symbols of societal position.
