Shatterglass by Tamora Pierce

4.0

Since the books in The Circle Opens series don’t need to be read in order, I went ahead and read Shatterglass before Cold Fire. Tris has grown into a self-possessed young woman with a backbone of steel who uses her fiery temperament to the defense of others. Tris’s core of kindness was shown again and again throughout the story to Chime (the most adorable new character), Keth, and the child Glaki. It was interesting to see Tris deal with the challenges of being the younger teacher of an older student while they also tried to solve a mystery. The expert mixing of genres creates a truly fantastic tale.
