I have read the whole Tortallan series besides Trickster's Chioce, and I have to say, besides Alanna, that this is the best series in the saga. She doesn't fool around, she had morals, she cares about animals. Protector of the Small. While she thinks it is a stupid name, I think it fits. From griffins to horses,from dogs to sparrows, this lady is a saviour to the people. I like how Tamora kinda of uses Kel as an opposte of Alanna. While Alanna is short, loud, married, and has a really bad temper, Keladry is very tall, quiet, single. and has no temper to be seen. Not that she doesn't. When she does get mad, people pay big time for their mistakes. Like when some (I won't tell who, it will reck the story) people took Lalasa, she got really mad when justice wasn't served. She got the king to change a law! After some debating, of course. I really recommend that you read it in order. If you don't, it will reck the other ones. Read them in order. The series in order, too. Starting with Alanna then Daine, then Kel, then Alianne.

I agree. But don't you think the trivia isn't that helpful? I mean, anyone who reads the series knows about the whole Yamani thing. 75.4.55.248 17:40, 7 January 2007 (UTC)eddisford

I've read nearly all of Tamora Pierce's books, and I love the Protector of the Small quartet the most. The thing is, I wasn't aware that Kel had eight siblings - I thought she only had six. When were Demadina and Avinar revealed? Please cite your source. Oh, and watch your spelling. It's rubbish. abyssgirl 06:34, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
