Review Summaries
"As a page in the palace Keladry of Mindelan is fighting, performing her studies, and keeping up with the bullies in the page's and squire's wing. But being the only girl among 20-30 boys is not easy, especially when being put up with a older, stronger boy named Joren, a conservative who hates Keladry, and fighting new emotions for her best friend."
Myazaki, Resident Tamora Pierce Scholar
