I review Tamora Pierce’s In the Hand of the Goddess over on my blog.
This is the second novel in the Song of the Lioness quartet, one of my all-time favorite book series. I don’t gush in this review like I did in my review of Alanna: The First Adventure, because I’ve already said how much I love these books and why.
Oooh, you just made me wicked nostalgic for the Tortilla books. I am going to have to dig them out now!
Yay! I read through the whole series of Tortall books at least once a year. I just found a couple of the Provost’s Dogs trilogy, and am reading through them for the first time. It’s nice to read a book for the first time sometimes.
I lost track after the Protector of the Small quartet, so I have quite a few new books before me. And I just noticed that “Tortall” was corrected to “Tortilla.” Bad auto-correct!
This cover is so much better than any of the other covers I’ve seen for this series.
Isn’t it great? It’s the original cover of the hardback books published back in the 80’s. These were the covers I grew up on, and someday I will own all four of the original books.
