I've always loved this series, I've read it over and over again since I was in grade school. Every time I get a little more out of it, and this time was no different. This was my first time listening to the audiobook and it was so much fun. I got to say that my favorite part to this day is still Daine's sassy relationship with her pony Cloud, which is especially prevalent in this first book.
My one complaint, although technically not unreasonable in the book's environment, is how young Daine is. She is 13 at the beginning of this book. It isn't a problem here per se, but it becomes problematic as the rest of the series develops.

I have so much love for the characters in these books! I love Daine and Numair, and it was wonderful to see some old friends again as well.
