Lady Knight – A Quick Review

[ Sleepy Mood: Sleepy ]

So I stayed up way too late last night reading and finished Lady night by Tamora Pierce.

This is the last book of her Protector of the Small Series. This one follows Kel in her first command after becoming a knight. The Kingdom of Tortall is at war with its northern neighbour, Scanran. Kel is anticipating getting to fight bad guys, but is instead put in charge of a refugee camp.

This is a very well written and gripping book. Pierce does not shy away from the brutality of war, although it is not a graphic Doom-fest. Characters die, are raped and treat each other like crap.

I strongly recommend this book.
