"I don't want to fall in love. I just want to be a warrior maiden."

Still disguised as a boy, Alanna becomes a squire to none other than the prince of the realm. Prince Jonathan is not only Alanna's liege lord, he is also her best friend — and one of the few who knows the secret of her true identity. But when a mysterious sorceror threatens the prince's life, it will take all of Alanna's skill, strength, and magical power to protect him — even at the risk of revealing who she really is...

Filled with swords and sorcery, adventure and intrigue, good and evil, Alanna's second adventure continues the saga of a girl who dares to follow her dreams — and the magical destiny that awaits her.

Alanna's journey continues...

Fascinating and very exciting!You can actually 'feel' Alanna's fear when she fell into the icy lake or the tensed situation when Alanna is fighting with Duke Roger. This story is as good as the first book, maybe even better!

I loved this book to bits -- I thought the first book in the series, Alanna: The First Adventure was good, but this one is really great. Alanna, who has successfully disguised herself as a boy in order to train as a knight, is growing up. So far she's kept her secret from everyone except those closest to her, but she knows the time is coming when she will pass her Ordeal into knighthood, and reveal herself as Tortall's first female knight in over a century. Fortunately, she has some strong allies, but awkwardly enough, both Prince Jonathan and George the Thief Lord (who have been in on her secret for several years) are starting to notice her in a different way, and she's not ready for that yet... There's plenty of sorcery, swashbuckling, and cloak-and-dagger stuff, too. All in all, this is a very satisfying read -- I only wish it were longer!
