This book is a stellar read! I first found it on a friend's bookshelf; after reading it, I had to go out and find myself a copy!
Robin McKinley writes with care; both exciting and stimulating. What makes this interesting is that you can read it quickly for the story - and your first readthrough will probably be quick, because of the pace! - or you can read slowly, and enjoy Ms. McKinley's fabulous command of simile and word picture. It seems that she takes great care to insert a lot of nuance and feeling into her work. in my re-read, I enjoyed the extra insights into Harry's mind that I had missed the first time thru.
Highly recommended!
