“From now on I’m Alan of Trebond, the younger twin. I’ll be a knight.”
In a time when girls are forbidden to be warriors, Alanna of Trebond wants nothing more than to be a knight of the realm of Tortall. So she finds a way to switch places with her twin brother, Thom. Disguised as a boy, Alanna begins her training as a page at the palace of King Roald. But the road to knighthood, as she discovers, is not an easy one. Alanna must master weapons, combat, and magic, as well as polite behavior, her temper, and even her own heart.
Filled with swords and sorcery, adventure and intrigue, good and evil, Alanna’s first adventure begins—one that will lead to the fulfillment of her dreams and make her a legend in the land.

Although this is a children's book I still immensely enjoyed it. Who would have thought? The story isn't just about a child, it is also written in a style intended for children. So if you are looking for something along the lines of the beginning of The Name of the Wind, you wont find it here, even though the hero/heroine are roughly the same age. But this style fit the overall feeling of the book, so it didnt leave a negative impression with me. I just hope that the author manages to adapt her style to the increasing age of the heroine in future books...
