I had a hard time with this book. For some reason this book was hard for me to really get into. Zagora is the kind of character that I would normally really like, she is adventurous, intelligent and spunky. But I just didn't connect with her in this book, though I did like the characters of her father and brother. The inconsistency with mythology, a fairy new interest interest of mine, added to other improbabilities in this book detracted from my enjoyment of the book too. But for a younger reader I do think that the fast pace, adventured that Zagora, Duncan and their father take will appeal to some readers.
