Paksenarrion -- Paks for short -- is somebody special. She knows it,
even if nobody else does yet. No way will she follow her father's orders
to marry the pig farmer down the road. She's off to join the army, even
if it means she can never see her family again. And so her adventure
begins . . . the adventure that transforms her into a hero remembered in
songs, chosen by the gods to restore a lost ruler to his throne. Here is
her tale as she lived it. "Brilliant . . . the excitement of high heroic
adventure . . . superbly cast with protagonists and supporting
characters that will enchant the reader." -- Bookwatch
