I absolutely LOVE Tamora Pierce's books. They totally rock! I also like the Lioness quartet, but we can only pick one of the choices. Currently I am reading Squire in Protector of the Small. I can't wait for more stories about Kel and Daine and Alanna and all the other characters. I just LOVE all these books!!

It was a great pleasure reading this quartet. While I was reading, I was overwhelmed with Daine's courage and loyalty. I was especially captivated when she met the hyenas in Emperor Mage. That takes a lot of valor to be in a cage with them! What made me so fascinated was how Daine would do almost anything to save her friends. She was always determined to help. She kept steady and always had a calm head. After I read your book, I try to be more like her, helping whenever I can. When I am in a tough spot, I just think of all those things that she had done. Then I realize that I can do this. I just want to thank you for creating such an inspiring character.

Hey People.
I have read Alanna's first adventure many times now and have developed a great love for the novel. As it is, the novel was a random book I chose out of a book store which was having a sale. Since the first time that I read it, I recognised it for what it was. An ABOSOLUTELY FABULOUS BOOK! I agree that it could be made into a movie series. Now comes the dilema. I cannot find the rest of the series. I plan to search though, because if they're anything like the first book, then it will be extrememly enjoyable. I also believe the book puts a realistic touch on magic and sorcery. Thank you Tamora for writing such an interesting and adventurous book.

If anyone out there has not read all three of Tamora Pierce's series about Tortall (The Song of the Lioness, The Immortals, and The Protector of the Small), they have been missing out on a huge chunk of life!

I found the books in my school library last year when I was thirteen and I haven't been able to stop loving them! My favorite is probably the Immortals, then The Song of the Lioness, and then the Protector of the Small but I love them all regardless. I have heard from a lot of people that they would like to see some movies about these books and I would just like to say that I plan to be a producer/director and my first job with be to make three series of movies about these books, that I can promise! And if you haven't read these books, DO!

Not to be rude or anything, but I would never recommend this series to anyone-not even my worst enemy.That would be cruel and unusual punishment.
This was one of the worst fantasy series I've ever read.In fact, it put me to sleep...twice...in the middle of the day.
This series is about a half crazed girl who can heal animals.In fact, every now and then, she thinks she is an animal!Daine is NOT a lovable character, unles you are an insomniac.Do not read these books!!!
