Description

Alanna must protect her best friend, the prince, from an evil sorcerer in this second book in Tamora Pierce's Margaret A. Edwards Award-winning young adult series--now with a new look!

Still disguised as a boy, Alanna becomes a squire to none other than the heir to the throne. Prince Jonathan is not only Alanna's liege lord, but also her best friend--and one of the few who know the secret of her identity. When a vicious sorcerer threatens the prince's life, it will take all of Alanna's skill, strength, and magical power to protect him...even at the risk of surrendering her dreams.

"Few authors can slay so effectively with a single sentence--I mean fist-in-the-air, shouting-at-my-book slay--as Tamora Pierce. All these years later, I still draw strength from her words."

"Tamora Pierce is gloriously unafraid to give her readers joy and laughter along with adventure and struggle, to let us love her characters wholeheartedly and find the best of ourselves in them."

"It's impossible to overstate Tamora Pierce's impact on children's literature. Her tough, wise, and wonderful heroines have inspired generations of readers."

"Tamora Pierce's writing is like water from the swiftest, most refreshingly clear, invigorating, and revitalizing river."
