Editorial Review
Aly’s adventure continues. . . . No longer a slave, Alanna’s daughter is now spying as part of an underground rebellion against the colonial rulers of the Copper Isles. The people in the rebellion believe that a prophecy in which a new queen will rise up to take the throne is about to be realized. Aly is busy keeping the potential teenage queen and her younger siblings safe, while also keeping her in the dark about her future. But Aly, who is usually adept at anticipating danger and changes, is in for a few nasty surprises.
New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Tamora Pierce captured the imagination of readers 20 years ago with Alanna: The First Adventure. As of August 2003, she has written 21 books including three completed quartets: The Song of the Lioness, The Immortals, and The Protector of the Small, set in the fantasy realm of Tortall. She has also written the Circle of Magic and The Circle Opens quartets. The author lives in New York, NY.

umm

this is not a book for all ages... i would say 13 or older... it has some STUFF in it... yeah

Aly is the kind of friend you always want in your corner.

I adore the character of Aly in Trickster's Queen and Trickster's Choice. She's strong and capable and driven - but has such a sense of humour and a delightfully laid-back view on life. Too many heroines in fantasy novels are one-note, but Aly is a symphony. She knows who she is, and is confident in her abilities, which makes other confident as well. The story is exciting, romantic and has a important message, yet Ms. Pierce doesn't beat you over the head with it. This book is perfect for fantasy lovers of all ages.

Convenient but good

2008-03-15
I have to agree with other reviewers that this second book was very "convenient." But at the same time, I really enjoyed it. I didn't predict Dove's role at all, so that was cool for me. Then again, I haven't read any other Tamora Pierce books, so maybe she pulls that switcheroo a lot.
Anyway, same great characters. Cool little darkings (or whatever they were called. They were my favorites besides Ali). More plotting and spying. A surprising death. And a happy ending.
I don't care how convenient it was, it was a great book. I'm just sad there aren't more Ali adventures.

Charmingly predictable...

... and I mean that in a good way. Ms. Pierce seemingly pulls characters from 20th century fantasy central casting and does a great job building a compelling page turner. This is light fare when so many authors seem to be driven to "go dark" to the point of being just plain depressing.

great book

My daughter (15 years) loves everything written by Tamora Pierce. Great author!
