Question: Trickster's Choice and Trickster's Queen by Tamora Pierce!?
this book!? whats it about!? should i read it!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
YES!!! Read them!!!!!!! ahem!. Sorry, it's just that those books are so totally awesome! As for what they're about!? Well, read the summaries! But, I will tell you that it's other-world fantasy, and there is magic, and mideval weapons, transportation, etc!.

But you shouldn't start with those two books!. Tamora Pierce has written a lot of other books that come before these two!. Here's the list of books in this world!. I'll give them in the order of what year they are:

"Beka Cooper: Terrier"

The Song of the Lioness quartet:
"Alanna: The First Adventure"
"In the Hand of the Goddess"
"Woman Who Rides Like A Man"
"Lioness Rampant"

The Immortals quartet:
"Wild Magic"
"Wolf Speaker"
"Emperor Mage"
"The Realms of the Gods"

The Protector of the Small quartet:
"First Test"
"Page"
"Squire"
"Lady Knight"

And THEN it's "Trickster's Choice", and "Trickster's Queen"!.

Tamora Pierce also has two other quartets, and a single book (that's connected to both quartets) in another world!.

The Circle of Magic quartet
"Sandry's Book"
"Tris's Book"
"Daja's Book"
"Briar's Book"

The Circle Opens quartet
"Magic Steps"
"Street Magic"
"Cold Fire"
"Shatterglass"

and then "The Will of the Empress"!.

All of Tamora Pierce's books are awesome, and you should definitely read them all!. She's one of my favorite authors!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Trickster's Choice is the continuing story from the Alanna series even though it stands alone with the partner book Trickster's Queen!. They are about Alanna's daughter Aly and her adventures!.

Yes, You should read them!. I love all the books Tamora Pierce writes!. She is a great author!. You might get more out of them though if you started at the beginning!. Alanna: The First Adventure is the first book in the series, but you can start with Trickster's Choice if you want!. You won't miss much just a few inside jokes and moments!.

Synopsis:
Tamora Pierce brings readers another Tortall adventure! Alianne is the teenage daughter of the famed Alanna, the first lady knight in Tortall!. Young Aly follows in the quieter footsteps of her father, however, delighting in the art of spying!. When she is captured and sold as a slave to an exiled royal family in the faraway Copper Islands, it is this skill that makes a difference in a world filled with political intrigue, murderous conspiracy, and warring gods!. This is the first of two books featuring Alianne!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The Trickster's series is probably one of my favorite out there!. I really loved the story and characters!. Tamora Pierce has written a lot of other books, but I think it will be fine if you read Trickster first!. Yea, there are a few characters that you would know if you have read Pierce's other works, but everything is explained over the course of the novels!. also, if you like them, then I reccomend The Protector of the Small series!. I'm currently re-reading them, and I realize just how much I love them! Anyways, Trickster is great! Read 'em! You'll love them!Www@QuestionHome@Com
