A review by norna28
The Blue Sword by Robin McKinley

4.0

This book is about a young girl named Harry and her transition from being quiet and submissive to a strong and independent leader. Her transition began with her being kidnapped by the king of a neighboring colony. She comes to learn of a hidden talent as well as who she is.
I liked this book but Robin McKinley really likes her geography. I had a bit of trouble getting through her descriptions of the land and battle scenes but overall enjoyed it. McKinley is talented and I enjoyed her writing.
