I've only read (well, it was on audio) one Tamora Pierce book and I loved it. I really need to read more of her stuff!

I love Tamora Pierce and wish I'd discovered her when I was a kid because she is among my favorite authors now. Her heroines are brave, intelligent, and imperfect. I adore them! :)

I *need* that book when it comes out!! It feels like ages since a Tammy book came out and I'm dying to read Mastiff as well! Gah now I just want to re-read any or all of her books - 2011 is too far away!! :(

Violet said...

LadyViolet- I am eagerly awaiting Mastiff too! Doesn't it seem like ages since Bloodhound was released? Sometimes it is so difficult to wait for awesome books. :(

She actually gave a release date?! I didn't realize it was coming out so soon, either! This will at least tide me over till Mastiff comes out. I'm still bitter about the delay of that book.

@Violet I *know!* and I pre-ordered Bloodhound as well so I got it the day after it was released and it still feels like forever ago! Gah!

I haven't read a Tamora Pierce book in a while. What a great way to revisit her work! I didn't know this was coming out.

I still haven't read all of Tamora Pierce's books but I've enjoyed the ones that I have and the rest are in my wishlist. I want this one as well! My WoW pick is here if you have time to check it out.

I LOVE ALL THINGS TAMORA PIERCE! This is super exciting stuff and I hope it'll tide me over until Mastiff is released! I'm also super duper excited for her next book after Mastiff, which is about Briar from her Circle series :D

How had I not heard of this?! I'll attribute my failure to the fact that I've been in Mongolia for the last three weeks. But still... grrr. Gah, I'm so excited!
