Review Detail

In this book, Alanna is truly a Lioness. She has fought in countless bloody battles, and all her deeds are legendary, but her gender still remains a mystery. The title of the book is truly deserving, as Alanna has gone on a rampant. I think this book is simply amazing.

Having achieved her dream of becoming the first female knight errant, Alanna of Trebond is not sure what to do next. She has triumphed in countless bloody battles, and her adventures are already legendary. Perhaps being a knight errant is not all that Alanna needs....But Alanna must push her uncertainty aside when she is challenged with the impossible. She must recover the Dominion Jewel, a legendary gem with enormous power for good -- but only in the right hands. And she must work fast. Tortall is in great danger, and Alanna's arch-enemy, Duke Roger, is back -- and more powerful than ever. In this final book of the Song of the Lioness quartet, Alanna discovers through fierce combat and ceaseless searching that she indeed has a future worthy of her mythic past -- both as a warrior and as a woman.

This not only proves that Alanna is amazing, it also proves that a women is just as strong as any man, maybe even more. Though this is the end of the Song of the Lioness quartet, they are many more after this that include her in them, but you hardly ever see them, which is slightly disappointing.

But these, are in no way, disappointing. I recommend it to girls and women alike, if they want a read that proves that being a women is like being a warrior.
