Title: Spindle's End: Not what you'd expect
Review: Readers and fans alike will no doubt find this book to be totally enjoyable. The themes from previous McKinley books are there: human-animal connections, evil to be overcome for the good of all, and love where you would least expect it, but it's the heroine's self-discovery that draws me in. The quality of the story, unprecidented in our literature that contains weak female roles, comes also from the strong female main character (typical McKinley), where our heroine overcomes the greatest of tragedies with an unexpected strength not entirely unexpected of her. McKinley fans will relive the magical experiences not unlike "Hero" and "Blue Sword" where the human-animal connection is the factor that tips the scale for ridding the world of evil beings. Delightful!
