I'm a bit prejudiced when it comes to books by Tamora Pierce as I have always loved her work, which I started reading when I was 12. This story is told in two volumes, the first of which is Trickster's Choice. The protangonist is young Aliane, a young lady of a rather priveleged upbringing, being the child of a spymaster and a lady knight. Through a series of god-inspired events she finds herself alone in a new country that is preparing for civil war. If you like spy novels you'll enjoy the crafty intrigues of gods and mortals in this tale of political intrigue, family, and survival.
an adorable and strange book, the poems are nice, but somewhat generic, though they do reveal some interesting truths about humanity's love affair with the cat, it is the photography that really makes this book good, the pictures dare to go beyond the cutesy wutesy and take a more artistic almost manrayesque approach to the cat and reveal and revel in the strangeness and arabesque beauty of these most graceful of creatures.
