Now a knight of Tortall, with her gender no longer a secret, Alanna embarks on her next adventure to the edge of the realm. Captured for the crime of trespassing, Alanna is sentenced to a duel to the death. But the Woman Who Rides Like a Man is not so easy to kill. Though the duel is won, the battle is just beginning. When Alanna is named the Bazhir people's first female shaman, she is tasked with training her successors. But first, she must overcome their fears of magic, for the sake of all Tortall. Forty years on from first publication, The Song of the Lioness Quartet retains its warmth, adventure, and steel, affirming this coming-of-age tale as a timeless masterpiece.

      Trini Alvarado maintains diverse accents and large numbers of characters in this production, the third volume in the Song of theLioness quartet. Alvarado differentiates between the characters, adding stronger emotions as the plot requires without merely relying on a shift in volume. Alanna of Trebond, now a knight, was forced to leave the castle after a duel led to the death of her greatest enemy and the revelation of her gender. Only by joining a Bahzir tribe as its first female warrior and shaman can she work to change the traditions of the tribe and all of Tortall. E.J.F. (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine
