From School Library Journal

Grades 5-8--Alanna of Trebond continues her masquerade as Alan in this, the second book in the Song of the Lioness quartet by Tamora Pierce (Random, 1990). The story spans Alanna's fours years as Prince Jonathan's squire. During this time, Alanna participates in her first war, battles against Jonathan's evil uncle, Duke Roger, meets the Great Mother Goddess and experiences first love, all the while maintaining her guise as a boy. Actress Trini Alvardo perfectly captures the essence of Alanna by giving her the uncertainty of a girl on the verge of womanhood combined with the steel determination and strength of a squire preparing for the battle to become a knight. Alvarado uses slight changes in her voice to vividly give life to a large cast of characters. While familiarity with the first book in the series, Alanna: The First Adventure (Random, 1983), will enhance this story, it is by no means necessary. Add this timeless story to collections where magic, adventure, and strong female characters are in demand.

From AudioFile

Although this is Book 2 in the Song of the Lioness series, the plot of IN THE HAND OF THE GODDESS stands on its own. It continues the story of a young girl who disguises herself as a boy to become a knight and serve her king. Trini Alvarado narrates with enthusiasm and care. One could easily see her performing as a storyteller at a Renaissance fair. This story of magic, war, romance, and intrigue is wrapped in language designed to suggest the "days of yore."

4.0étoiles sur 5 In the Hands of the Goddess, Mars 23 2004
Par "lifefire" (North Bend, WA USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Tamora Pierce is an excellent writer. She pulls in the desire of young Alanna, who wants to become the first lady knight in a century. It's easy to relate to the story to your own life. It teachs that if you want to become strong or good at something, you need to practice, practice, practice and that's what Alanna did. Alanna fight with her love of adventuring, and the love of three men, the Shang Warrior, The King, and the King of Thieves.

4.0étoiles sur 5 On the Whole Not That Bad, Mars 12 2004
Par Un client
By the time I was eight I read all the books in my school. By the time I was twelve I read almost all the books in the public library. I was forced like some other out there to re-read books. I have read this series many many times. I am now a teacher, and I am looking to find some of these old books to share with my students. I have not read about "Alan" in about ten or more years. But its one of those books that you can remember. Other teachers (and parents) out there, if you have an advanced students or child, and they have a passion for reading. This is one for them. I am talking about the type of child who reads Gone With The Wind in less then two days, at the age of ten. Children know more then what we give them credit for.

For those of you who are worried about mature content, I wouldn't really worry. If they watch TVs "Friends" or "Buffy", they see the same stuff.

It really is a great series, and one of the first forms of entertainment where a female is in the lead. And not a 1950's type of woman either.

On the whole, its really not that bad.

But; I do have to admit, there are better books out there. War and Peace, Utopia, Plato's Republic to name a few. And there are also worse books out there too.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Great book , but people ruined the series by telling the END, Janv. 6 2004
Par jenny (Boston, Ma) - Voir tous mes commentaires
First of all i would like to say "I LOVE HOW MUCH PEOPLE RUINED THIS SERIES FOR ME".I mean seriously you don't need to tell me what happens, I can find out for myself thank you very much. If something happens in the book don't put it in your review.This automaticaly ruins it for people who want to read a story and be stunned by the ending of the series.If you are going to leave a review just summarize the book and DON'T GIVE THE ENDING AWAY.

That being said this is a very good book and it is worth your time. Personally I couldnt put this book down. I stayed up till about 4 in the morning, when I had to get up at 6. This is a very good story but don't waste your time on the last 2.

(P.S) ( It might just be that I am biased but I think that all third installments of series totally [STINK]. And thank you again for ruining it for me.)
