joelfr 's review for:
The Hero and the Crown
by Robin McKinley
So I've been meaning to read this book for, I'm not kidding, 10 years.
I read The Blue Sword back then and it has remained a favorite of mine since. This story, like that one, reads like legend, heavy with fantasy troped and bold, memorable characters.
My only small complaints are the pacing at the beginning and the ease of magic in yhe world (not that people don't work and struggle, but endings are often ring with the inevitability of fate, not of that strength).
