What an adorable book. I have Ellen Kushner to thank for putting it on my radar in the SF Squeecast - Flora Segunda did not disappoint. This is a fun adventure story of a girl who yearns to be a ranger - a sort of magical spy - but her family insists she join the military. While Flora still debates how to tell her mother that she doesn't want to become a soldier, she stumbles into a huge adventure and drags her best friend Udo, the little red dog Flynnie, and even the horse Bonzo into it.
A highly recommended YA novel featuring the coolest house since Hogwarts.
