To Play the Lady
Oct. 15th, 2012 04:25 pmI'm not sure why I originally downloaded the sample of To Play the Lady by Naomi Lane to my Kindle. I must have either run across a mention elsewhere or found it during one of my periodic trawls through the Customers Also Bought section of some page, sent the sample to myself, and then promptly forgot about it. Either way, I'm glad I did. Send it to myself, not forgot about it.
It's a self-published YA fantasy novel I found reminiscent of Mercedes Lackey* and Tamora Pierce. 12-year-old tomboy Jenna Mallory, half Salaran and half-Rahtani, has been accepted to be a lady-in-waiting to the Queen while her brother has gone for knight training. Jenna (of course) gets sucked into palace intrigue and discovers that she has unusual, and unusually strong, magical talents.

* Well, the bits of Lackey I like, not (most of) the bits I rail against.
