danikass 's review for:

Lioness Rampant by Tamora Pierce

4.0

---

what a way to go out. the perfect mix of relationships and adventure, quest and battle. and while the romantic relationships are the least interesting, i'm very happy with the turnout. i also appreciate pierce's willingness to make war realistic in that she didn't only let the bad guys die. and the death with lightning? *chefs kiss*

4 stars only because it was a little confusing at times, and the jewel plotline felt a little forced.
