The Woman Who Rides Like a Man

Author: Tamora Pierce

This is the third book in the Song of the Lioness series. In this book Alanna has just been knighted and she has told everyone that she is in fact a woman. Now she goes out to the Tortall desert to find adventure. She is forced to use her new found knight skills to prevent herself from being killed by the desert dwellers that have captured her. She is inducted into their tribe and becomes their first female shaman. She is changing their custom and some people are very opposed to the idea. She must fight to for all of the tribes and for all of Tortall. I really liked this book and I can't wait to read the next one. I find it interesting to watch as Alanna grows up and becomes her own person.

For Parents: There is some sexual things so I would say 12+ conservatively.
