#506 - In The Hand of the Goddess
In The Hand of the Goddess
Tamora Pierce
Book #2 - "Song of the Lioness Series"
This second book takes Alanna from her years as a squire to her knighthood. She deals with her secret getting out, romance, war, evil at court and much more. She also has a traveling companion in the form of a black cat. It does have a little reference to non marital romance which I don't agree with. Other than that it's a pretty good book!

The Song of the Lioness series
274 pages
There are 4 books in this series and I have to warn you that it is much like her other books. There is more than one series for this group of books. They totally build upon each other as the characters grow and change. These first four books are about Alanna. A young girl who desperately wants to become a Knight to the king. So in her scheme of things she trades her brother places and she becomes a boy and heads off to the castle. Great story!

Wow! This was a great story. Not at all what you would expect but as always be careful of what you wish for because it might just come true. It really makes me wonder what I would wish for if I found myself in the same situation. A very funny story that really leaves you thinking!

Don't let the size of this book scare you away. It is chocked full of pictures that really help to tell the story. The story is about the early French cinema and was facinating. I really enjoyed the book and the real history behind it.

I loved this story, it was totally delightful. She is much more famous for many of her other books. However this one has a wonderful true story behind it and so much heart. You can't help but to enjoy this delightful story.

Good book, I always love her stories because they always teach me about a new corner of the world. This one has a great coming of age type of story. The best part is the Dad realizing his little girl isn't just a little girl.
