Description: The Immortals Quartet is about Daine Sarrasri, a young woman with a "knack" for talkingThe Immortals Quartet is about Daine Sarrasri, a young woman with a "knack" for talking to animals. This series was written after the Song of the Lioness Quartet, and has many of the same characters, but is very successful even when read alone.

Again, Pierce stuns her readers with a well-written and extremely well thought out series, with many characters that the reader comes to know and love. Recommended for young adult readers, and everyone else!...

Description: This series follows Alanna of Trebond, a young woman who disguises herself as a man to becomeThis series follows Alanna of Trebond, a young woman who disguises herself as a man to become a knight under the King of Tortall. Throughout the series, many events transpire -- you follow Alanna throughout her first steps as a page, as a woman, watch her grow up, experience love, loss, and heartache, and, of course, physical pain.

Chock full of fantastical creatures, magic and very interesting characters, this is a wonderful series that is very re-readable. These books were intended for young adult readers -- the writing is a bit simple, but Pierce is a very talented writer with a knack for beautiful descriptions and interesting dialogue....
