Product Description:
Under the rule of a usurper king, the realm of Skala has suffered famine, plague, and invasion. But now the time for the rightful heir has come, a return to the tradition of warrior queens. And the Lightbearer’s prophecy is to be upheld at last: so long as a daughter of the royal line defends and rules, Skala will never be subjugated.
Now a mystical fire has burned away the male body known as Prince Tobin, revealing Princess Tamír, a girl on the verge of womanhood–and a queen ready to claim her birthright after a life in disguise under the protection of wizards and witches. But will her people, her army–and the friends she was forced to deceive–accept her? Worse, will the crown’s rival heir, friend to Tobin, turn foe to Tamír, igniting civil war in a fierce
battle for Skala?

Rating:  - Great series!
I thought this was a great series. Different from the usual fantasy you read. Actually, I think this is my favorite series by Lynn Flewelling.
Like most people have stated... did I want to hear more about the relationship between Tamir and Ki... yes, yes, yes!!! But, I think what we were given concerning their relationship made the story as a whole resonate more.
Go out and buy every book from Lynn Flewelling... you won't be disappointed!
Rating: - The Tamir Trilogy

Rating:  - Horrible
This is the worst book i've red in 5 years. I say red, because a number of books that are as bad as this one i haven't acctualy bothered finishing. However, as this was the third book of a triology i made an extra effort to do it. It wasn't easy, and i've probably all-in-all skipped at least a third of it, but the chore is done at last.
Lynn Flewlling had a really original and interesting idea/main plot, which held the first two books. Unfortunately, that and top notch take on magic ... Read More
Rating: - wow
I actually had come to forget about this trilogy--not even recognizing the first book as the ending of a series I started. Too much time had passed between the second and this final book. Because of this I was worried that I would not even remember the characters! And yet, remembering events from the previous two books ended up being no problem at all. Flewelling, apparently, seems to be an expert of reminding the reader of previous events without coming right out and saying--this is what happened. ... Read More
Rating: - engrossing
While not as good as the first two books, The Oracle's Queen is still an amazing book. You are drawn into the world of Tamir who grew up a boy, and must now rule a country as a Queen. Wonderfull.
