Wild Magic
The energy and liveliness of imagination in this book make it easy to see why a further three books are promised. The jarring oddness of fantasy -names and customs (and a breezy modern colloquialism to represent the conversation of the past) - quickly fades. Daine has the gift of wild magic and it's lovely to have her imagined close contact with all animals, talking with them and being them (from birds to horses, from the Kraken to dragons). Her gifts are a vital help in the battle against the demons unleashed and attacking the kingdom of Tortall. It's very exciting and, once into it, readers will be dying to lay hands on the sequels.
