, the first of four volumes adapting #1
bestseller Tamora Pierce’s Song of the Lioness quartet, we meet Alanna of Trebond, a young noblewoman from the kingdom of Tortall.
Alanna isn’t like other girls from noble families—what she really wants is to become a knight and earn her shield, something women
definitely
aren’t allowed to do.
But Alanna will not be deterred, and she arrives in the capital disguised as a boy to begin training as a page, the first step toward becoming a knight. Despite the tough conditions and grueling work, Alanna’s skills and stubbornness win her friends amongst the nobility
and
the denizens of the lower city. But not everyone wishes her well . . .
