Tris, and Briar, Daja, and Sandry, must face their magic and their fears when pirates attack Winding Circle. I appreciate the hints scattered throughout -- suspicious behavior, new magical skills, conversations captured on the wind -- that all come together in the end.

Only complaint is that it feels like the final few chapters speed along to an overly quick resolution. (I'm sure if these books were written today, they'd be much longer with more depth into what's happening and why!)
