Tris's Book

Summary: Tamora Pierce has done it again.
Review: This is the second book in the Circle of Magic Quartet, but it is not second when it comes right down to it. Tamora Pierce has written many books about the Kingdom of Tortall, but this series is in a compleatly different world. This makes this series even better. Though I love her other series, and I am glad that she is continuing in her next set of books, but reading about a new world and new characters if a great change.

Tris's Book begins two weeks after Sandry's Book, the first book, ended. The four children mages of Disipline Cottage are continuing their lessons with their teachers. Lark is teaching Sandry how to use her magic to weave. The Smith is teaching Daja how use her magic to look for metals under the ground. Rosethorne is teaching Briar more about the plants in her garden and how their magics connect them togethar. Last but not least, Niko is again intrupting Tris's lessons because of a large, unexpected explosion. This explosion is only the begining of the troubles at Winding Circle Temple. Pirate's attack the Temple, throwing exploding balls into the protective walls. All of the residents are needed to help protect the Temple from being destroyed. Tris, Sandry, Briar, and Daja must decide what to do to help and how they can use their powers to help. By the end of the book they have learned a lot of lessons, and they grow in wisdom. They also learn that they need to learn controll, over anything else, of their powers will be worthless.

After reading this book, I am now anxiously awaiting for the next two books of this quartet to be written and published. Tamora Pierce is a wonderful writer. She writes so that the readers feel as if they are a part of the action. I highly recomend this book, and all of her other books, to all kinds of readers of all ages. There is something in this book that will appeal to all different kinds of readers.

Summary: A summary
Review: In this book, Tris and her friends Daja, Sandry, and Briar are involved in the defense of a pirate attack. The real trouble starts when Daja goes out to help strengthen the chains that block the harbor with her smith magic. The others are woken by a vision of Daja in the harbr and exploding balls all around. In the end, Tris's friends are held captive by the evil mage Emelan who is the pirates' head mage. Tris has to save them. Even better than the first book in the series.

Summary: A great continuation!
Review: I found this book was even better than the last one! This book is mostly centered on Tris, the weather witch (hence the title). When pirates attack Winding Circle, the four children are very scared. The pirates definitely have an advantage, and things get quite dangerous. This book definitely has a darker air to it, but it also contains more action and a greater understand of Winding Circle and the young mages' magic.

Overall, I think this book is excellent, and even though I had some doubts about this series after reading Sandry's Circle, they have now vanished. I hope Daja's Book will be as good as, if not more, then Tris's Book.

Summary: Tris's Book
Review: Tris's book is the second book in the Circle of Magic series. In this book, a powerful earthquake has destroy parts of the Winding Circle's defenses. Although pirates have not dared attack it for years, they can't help but take advantage of its vunerability. The pirates are led by the pirate queen, Pahua, and her mage brother Enahar. The four young mages, Sandry, Tris, Briar, and Daja, are some of those to witness the pirate new and dangerous weapons--boomstones. These stones can explode a large amount of land and kill hundreds of people. All four mages must use their magics to protect the Winding Circle from invasion. Tris also dicovers what she needs most--control over her powers.

Summary: brilliant series by a brilliant author
Review: I loved all of Tamora Pierce's series, except this one. I suggest reading Protector of the Small Series, or the Song of the Lioness Quartet. They were my favorite series.

Summary: Excellent, Tris is a great character
Review: I love this, and it's not even my favorite from COM. I think Tris is the character that intrigues me the most, although I could never have a favorite from among the four. This book has lots of magic, a lot about pirates, enough about birds, and an interesting family tie that Tris had nearly forgotten. I love the part in the harbor with Daja and Frostpine best, but the final battle with the pirate fleet nearly tops that. Buying this book would be a good idea, as long as you had the rest of the seires. Owning only one of a series is very frusterating... trust me.
