Title: Tamora Pierce is wonderful as usual!
Review: Once again, Tamora Pierce creates believable characters in the wholly believable world of Tortall. These books detail Kel's second, third, and fourth years as a page, and introduces several new characters. First there is Jump a "hideous but lovable dog" who becomes everybody's, especially Kel's, pet. There is also Lalasa, Kel's new personal servant, who was abused and frightened in her previous home. Kel takes it upon herself to teach Lalasa self defense. There are also several new pages along the way, including Owen, a cheerful, tactless boy one year Kel's junior. There's also all the old, familiar characters we know and love, like Cleon (who starts acting very...oddly towards Kel), the Stump, the sparrows, and Neal (who Kel develops a crush on... ^_~).Of course, the story's filled with hilarious humor that you can relate to, heartwarming moments, and thrilling moments of suspense. You'll wish you were there, and almost feel that you are!
