"I don't want to fall in love. I just want to be a warrior maiden." Still disguised as a boy, Alanna becomes a squire to none other than the prince of the realm. Prince Jonathan is not only Alanna's liege lord, he is also her best friend -- and one of the few who knows the secret of her true identity. And when the Prince's life is threatened by a mysterious sorcerer, it will take all of Alanna's skill, strength, and magical power to protect him -- even at the risk of revealing who she really is....
Filled with swords and sorcery, adventure and intrigue, good and evil, Alanna's second adventure continues the saga of a girl who dares to follow her dreams -- and the magical destiny that will make her a legend in her land.

This book may not be the best and yeah, I prefer the first one, but I am hysterically crying.
Quite disappointing, actually. Almost no conflict and all the action felt like Cliff's Notes. :( However, there are lots of George scenes, which warrants a star all on its own!
Me: I liked the first Alanna book a lot, I might keep reading the series if I have time
Rebecca: In the second book she gets a magical talking cat
Me: !!!
Another good installment in the series. It's a quick read and enjoyable. I've got book 3 lined up and ready to read.
