Divided Allegiance

Another outstanding tale of Paksenarrion , picking up where it left off in Sheepfarmer's Daughter. Moon continues with excellent prose and world building, but this time, introduces elves, dwarves, and orcs. This book didn't suffer from second book in a trilogy syndrome. It's plot felt apropos of Paks' growth as a warrior and exploration of her magical and spiritual side. It ends on more of a cliffhanger than the first book did. It's certainly not a standalone book and leaves you wanting more. I was impressed by how much I liked the story and how emotionally involved I was with the aloof main character. My only complaint was technical: It was reported on my ebook as 322 pages, but almost every page was two swipes. I was only reading about 10-12 pages an hour and I couldn't figure out why for the longest time. Then I found on other websites that this book in other forms is over 500 pages long. Sneaky. So if you want to read this book, settle in for a longer than expected ride. LOL.
