Summary: It's Great!!!
Review: Tamora Pierce has outdone herself once again. I have read most of her books and believe that this is the best yet. Although a bit longer than her other stories, you still put this one down wishing it were longer. As soon as I finished the book I started to reread it! We are also finally given a chance to be reintroduced to characters from other books who haven't been able to take a role in Kel's study's yet. Even though there are more of them, all of the characters feel real, and make you want to jump in and join in the action. I reccomend this for any fantasy lover, or anyone into sword and sorcery novels. It's great!

Summary: Keldry
Review: This book is very good. Kel acualy finds a knight-master that will take her.(not Sir Alanna) If you don't like romance, you won't like this book. Kel and Cleon fall in love. The prince is getting married to a Yamani princess. The ending is not all that surprising, but very good.

Summary: SOOO COOL!
Review: This book is so great! Kel has ALOT to deal with. She is the squire to Goldenlake! Not only does she have to deal with the conservatives but the chamber has plans for her. Then in this book one of her old buddies kisses her. This book is fast pace and really good. If you love this book I recommend ALL the Tamora Pierce books. I so can't wait for the next book to come out.

Summary: A bit of a let down....
Review: This new addition to the Protector of the Small series let me down quite a bit. The book was, though longer and more detailed, not as fascinating and enjoyable as the former POTS books.
The story follows Kel of Mindelan, now a squire. Expecting Alanna the Lionesss as her new knight master, she is highly saddened and angered by the fact the Lioness chooses her best friend, Neal, as her squire. However, she is delighted by Sir Raoul of Goldenlake's offer and accepts.
Her new life with the King's Own (since Raoul is the King's Own commander) is somewhat different (and holds much more grueling work), yet gives her a broader view of scarred Tortall.
She works her way through jousts (proving to be brilliant), relationships (bye-bye Neal, hello Cleon - I wasn't expecting that, as well as that there all old enemies to deal with - surprisingly TP gives a fate to Joren quite unexpected, sexist knights, etc.), a young griffin, the Yamani princess, many new immortals and the start of a war with Scanra - and the terrifying Ordeal.
This book, while good, is somewhat a let down - she falls in love with Cleon - I was hoping for Neal, ha ha, somewhat dull and somewhat, okay, REALLY predictible.
Otherwise, the usual twists of action - there's a lot more of it -, fun, wonder and fantasy. Overall, an enjoyable read.

Summary: GREAT READ!
Review: I, personally, loved Squire. So far, it is my favourite in the series. Of my friends, the majority of them thought that it was one of Tamora Pierces better books, but I still love Alanna. Tamora Pierce is a great author and this book is no acception.

Summary: Best In The Series!
Review: This book was the best in the series. Nice and long, great plots...more action then the other books :O) I did miss how she had less time to spend with her friends, I looked forward to when she would return to the castle and be with her friends. Everyone is complaining about her romance with Cleon. I think its cute. The series needed a little romance ;)

Summary: Best ever!!!!
Review: What happened to Neal? Tamora Pierce doesn't really have much about the other characters as in Page or The First Test! This book is good, but a lot of the characters weren't very well represented-sort of 2d! Cleon, for example, was rather shallow.He only did one thing!

Summary: Really good! But Where's Neal???
Review: The third book in Tamora Pierce's series, Protector of the Small: Squire, was really good! It was detailed and exciting, just like all Ms. Pierce's other books, but I was sort of baffled about the Neal-Kel thing. Neal had been through all this stuff with Kel, and she liked him - and all Cleon did was call her funny names and, when she was a first year, make her fetch things for him (of course, in "Page" he did have a crush on Kel...).
Anyway, all in all, it was a really good book. I strongly reccomend it!

Summary: Protecter of small:Squire
Review: I think this is the best book of the series!!! Just like Alanna, she doesn't love the person you'd expect. Still, i wanted her to end up with Neal! It sort of sounded like he forced her into the relationship, though. All and all, the book was great.
Rating:
Summary: You will love this book!!!
Review: I am a big tamora pierce fan and i have read and own every book written so far in the lioness, wild mage and now protector of the small series. This book is one of the best a delightful mix of romance, action and that tomboy spirit thats in all tamora's charectors and that all women have a bit of in themselves.
