Cambridge B. (rideordie) - , reviewed on 8/7/2013 + 2 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 1

This was my favourite book when I was a teenager and I decided to revisit it to see if it still held up. It's really enjoyable as a fun read -easy to get caught up in!- but is PERFECT as a young adult fantasy read! Some of the descriptions are a bit lacking (especially during battle sequences) and that makes it somewhat hard to follow along at times but overall, I find it to be well-written and entertaining. The fact that the main protagonist is a strong, young woman is what drew me to this book in the first place; I was very happy to find that those kinds of characters are written throughout making the story a solid 50/50 ratio of men and women - not something you find often in fantasy novels.
