Summary: Something about it...
Review: This book was great, but I didn't love it as much as Squire. There was 0 romance, and I would have like there to be more, I just love romance! Well, on to the review!

Kel is now a knight!! Woohoo! In this book Kel is not what you might think of when you hear 'fighter' but she does fight! i loved this book, but I think one book was waaaay batter, that was Squire, but you can't blame me, for I am tooo much in love with Squire...

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great!
Review: Really lovely...however, the ending so hazy! The whole THING so hazy! ... Kind of annoying...

Don't get me wrong, it's an awesome book. If you like the other Kel books, you've just got to read it. Aside from the love interest factor, the ending's very nice. I hope Pierce will do what she did with the Circle books and pick Kel's story right back up--maybe a year or two later, but she SHOULD! Maybe with less emphesise on war--as it really is a war book.

But a good war book!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I can't believe people can read this stuff.
Review: this book shouldn't be labeled as for young adults it should be labeled for little kids and maybe young adults who are followers. these type of stories get the volume turned down after you've read books like fight club, and a clockwork orange. if you truly want to start reading things that are less predictable and less trite read those two books, then see if you want to return to this stuff

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: she did it again
Review: Once again, Tammy has given us another excellent book! The final book in the Protector of the Small Quartet proves to grant every wish we had for Kel and gives us some things to think about. Her third Tortall quartet follows Kelandry as she becomes the second Lady Knight in the Realm of Tortall. We endure her pains and we rejoice along with her happiness. By the end of Lady Knight you are as in love with these characters and you were with Alanna and Daine. Some shocking events prove Kel's worthiness of her title and her friends prove to her she is cared about. Filled with battle, magic, romance, and fatalic events, Lady Knight is a superb read for all!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: once again, Pierce has done it!
Review: I really loved this book, just as I loved the others. However, I only gave it a four because, like others have written, I felt that Pierce should have included a new love interest for Kel. The break- up with Cleon was kind of expected, and even though the author hinted at Dom, I would have preferred the book if she had included bits of Dom and Kel getting together. Maybe Pierce should write a 5th book??

But overall, it was brilliant! A wonderful conclusion to the series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Just What I Was Hoping For
Review: I was waiting for what seemed like years for the fourth and final book of Kel's series to finally come out, and when I got it, I read it in two days. It's a thrilling, gripping ending to an amazing series.

Kel has finally gotten her shield, and she's sent with all the knights of the realm to the northern border to fight in the war against Scanra. But she's disappointed when she's put in command of a refugee camp instead of getting to fight and go on her personal quest to find the maker of the horrible machines being sent against Tortall. But she does what she's told, just like the Kel we know.

I was very pleased when Tamora Pierce got rid of Cleon, who I didn't like. I missed her usual romance in this book, but it did seem like Kel to not want a lover. Although I'm thinking about Dom...

I was also happy to find that all the characters that had seemingly been forgotten in the third book appeared again, like Neal, Owen, and her other year-mates. I loved all the new characters in this book, like Kel's servant boy Tobe, and the refugees she had to take care of. There was a lot of adventure and fighting in this book, but just enough to make you love it. And everything was done in a humorous and realistic way.

Kel acted just like herself in this book, which really made up for the mistakes in the third book. This is definitely a worthwhile read. This is my favorite of all of Tamora's series, and she's my favorite author. This is a must-read, and once you pick it up, you can't put it down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I love this book!
Review: I really love Tamora Pierce books and was really looking forward to reading this book. She didn't disappoint me - this is another book, full of the adventures of Keladry and all of her friends. I love this book and I hope you do too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Kel has finally become a Lady Knight!
Review: After nearly a decade of training and preparing, 18-year-old Kel has joined the ranks as one of few female knights ever in Tortall. Since she got her shield in the middle of the war, Kel is well prepared to set off into battle, plus the Chamber of the Ordeal has given her a quest to stop an evil man who builds killing machines out of metal and children's souls. To stop this man Kel needs to be in battle. So Kel is shocked when Lord Wyldon, her former arms master, puts her in charge of a refugee camp instead. Kel is angry in the beginning but when sees the hungry faces of the now homeless refugees she can't refuse. But being in charge of a refugee camp is far from easy. Kel has to deal with angry people that don't agree with her at all not only because she is a young female knight, but because she is a noble as well. even so, Kel soon grows attached to her people. What will happen when everything is torn apart?

Tamora Pierce shows off her superior writing skills in the 4th edition of the Protector of the small story by telling one of her most suspenseful stories yet! Kel's story is unlike anything that a character has had to face before. This is probably my favorite book in the series. One was the fact that Kel wasn't constantly being confused about who she was falling in love with, like Alanna did. Maybe it's because Kel's only 18, and Alanna was a bit older in the final book of her quartet. The Protector of the Small quartet is a wonderful series that Tamora Pierce fans are sure to enjoy. I can't wait to see what adventures Mrs. Pierce comes up with in her future Tortall books and series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I agree
Review: I agree mostly with dustykid especially about Kel's love intrest I would have liked a little more detail. All in all though i really enjoyed Kel's final book, I do wish that Mrs. Pierce would write a fifth book; We all know thats not likely though.
Not my favorite book in this series but all the same it is very good.

It's got a very good plot and keeps you biting your nails. It's also a long book which i think was good because It is the Final book to the series. You learn a lot about Kel so I do suggest you read it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A fitting end to a great series
Review: I loved the book. I've heard complaints about how there should have been a love interest, she's too fickle, etc, but I have to say that's what brings relaity to this charachter. If you've read The Song of Lioness and The Immortals, two other fantasy series by Tamora Pierce, you realize that both series end with an engagement or a proposal. I personally liked the difference, and if you want adventure, this book is definatly the way to go. If you'd like to discuss your ideas, might I suggest ... to do so? Information is there, but I'm sure that the author wants feedback- and since it's a forum where her fans go, she often explains the always present why. I personally loved this book- I'm sure you will, too.
