good read

Although I didn't like this book quite as much as the previous one, it was still good. In this books, Alanna ends up becoming the first female shaman of one of the desert tribes after she kills their original shaman in self defense. Prince Jonathan comes to the tribe because there's a way to make all the desert tribes follow him when it's his time to rule. Although I still love reading about Alanna and she's still the strong, take-charage character I enjoyed from the beginning, I felt she became too much of a sorceress in this book. It was an interesting side of Alanna, and I enjoyed the book's plot, but I missed the Alanna from previous books, who used magic only when she really had to.

Woman who Rides Like a Man is spellbinding!

Women have been portrayed as weak, conniving, and inferior. Alanna breaks all of the typical stereotypes to become the first female knight in over a century after eight years as disguising herself as a boy. Alanna is made the first female shaman of the Bloody Hawk a tribe of the Bazhir, natives of the Tortallan desert, and this book describes her journeys, her her triumphs, her losses, and even newfound love. I definetly enjoyed it, and I will read all of Ms. Pierce's books if they meet the standards Woman who Rides Like a Man has set.
