Alanna: The First Adventure (Song of the Lioness, #1)

Didn't like this very much. It was a fun story but not given the detail I would have appreciated. Then again, it covers a few years in a girl's life in not too many pages, so I guess it had to skim a bit. Also, might be the children/young adult aspect that doesn't allow to go as in-depth as I would have liked.
Might read the further adventures, but my library's missing #2 and I don't feel motivated enough to ILL it.
Story of a girl who wants to be a knight, not a nun or a wife, so she switches place with her twin brother so he can go learn to be a wizard and she can train to be a knight. Things are tough, but she finds friends and inner-strength to get her through her trials. The story so far ends with her going t become squire to her friend, the Prince.

Read past Alanna and it DOES get the depth that you are looking for. The Immortals has what you are looking for,.. Her other books further on, even more.
