Title: Not up to par
Product review: Wow! After the first two novels, I thought I'd discovered a winner in Tamora Pierce. But I found "Woman Who Rides Like a Man" to be quite frankly, boring. Alanna's character has changed- instead of being an aspiring swordswoman she becomes a shaman and her character changed to a whiny-superior-know-at-all.What made Alanna interesting was her desire to do unorthodox things. IE: Becoming a knight, going on adventures. Now its as though the character backsliding. I read Alanna books to learn about her adventures.. Not about her learning to weave.I also don't particularly care for the older men Alanna keeps going out with, as an adult reader, I find it off-putting... Don't these men have women their own age? George is *way* too old for Alanna.I was disappointed in "Woman Who Rides Like A Man" It did not hold my interest, and seemed quite forced.
