Summary: This book is Tamora Pierce at her best.
Review: When I read this book for the first time it was in one day. I immediately knew it was my favorite. It was suspenseful and interesting. Three different plots woven into one. The appearance of the Mother Goddess made it all the better.In this book you watch as Alanna begins to overcome the three fears she has never really accepted. Her fear of love, the Ordeal of Knighthood, and of the Duke Roger of Conte. A magnificent book!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful, the best !
Review: I think that this book was the best in the series " The song of the Lioness ", it was well written, funny and exciting. After I read the book I reread it over and over again. Tamora Pierce is a wonderful author! She knows how to get the reader involved in the first couple of paragraphs of this exciting and interesting novel!

Summary: One of the better books in the genre.
Review: "In the Hand of the Goddess" is the stunning sequel to "Alanna: The First Adventure". This book was so incredibly breath-taking, I found myself gasping at every turn. The characterisations are superb, embedded in a well-developed plot set in a believable world.

Alanna is the young, secretly female squire of the heir to the Tortallen throne. She struggles with her identity, visitations from divinities and the love of her best friends and gradually discovers herself. She faces her nemisis in the oily Duke Roger, and.....

The characters in this book bear notice because they cannot be neatly classified, as the one-dimensional characters in so many modern books so neatly show us. The world is completely believable, from the gods and goddesses to the common people. Tamara Pierce ought to be commended for her excellent work in this genre, allowing it to become something more than shallow entertainment. This book is a gem; do yourself a favour and get it today!!
