The final installment of the series "Song of the Lioness" is as well written as the other three installments.
In "Lioness Rampant" Alanna's role in saving Tortall becomes evident. She goes on a quest for the Dominion Jewel (said to have immense powers for the wielder). With her goes Liam the Shang Dragon and Thayet (previous princess of Sarain) with her body guard Biri. Coram, of course, is along for the ride as well.
While Alanna seeks the Dominion Jewel, all is not well back in the capital of Corus. Thom has brought Comte Roger alive again and Roger is as usual up to no good. George is not having an easy time of it either, as Claw is still fighting dirty for the throne of the Rougue.
I'm not certain I enjoyed this book as much as the other three. Some of the depth of the characters seemed to be lost, or perhaps I was just ready to be finished with the series. All in all this was a good conclusion to an enjoyable series.

This is the fourth, and final book in the Alanna series and I think it is one of the best. It is mainly about what Alanna has to do to get the Dominion Jewel to the King, but also has the other characters too along with some new ones like the Shang Dragon Liam Ironarm who Alanna rather likes. The King and Queen are dead so Jonathan is King. Alanna'a brother Thom has done some very powerful, very stupid magic and brought someone back from the dead which Alanna is not so happy about(no prizes then, for guessing who-who was it that Alanna killed at the end of the second book again?!) The Coronation is looming and this is the perfect time for some of Jon and Alanna's enemies to strike. At the end of the book Alanna also finally decides who she will marry. Altogether a thorough finale of my favoiurite TP series.

On one of her capers, Alanna meets the Shang Dragon. Together with Coram- her manservant and close friend -they travel to a foreign land where Alanna wants to find a jewel that will give its holder anything it desires for Prince Jonathon, ruler of Tortall. But she can only get this jewel if she is worthy. On her journey she meets people who become close friends- but when she returns to Tortall trouble is brewing. Her worst enemy is back and Prince Jonathon is in deadly danger. Alanna is helped by her new father Miles of Olau and George the King of Thieves. But even with the added power of the jewel she loses some people very close to her heart.

An interesting story about a different world
I loved this book and the others in the quartet, Tamora Pierce is obviously a strong feminist, which comes up in both Song of the Lioness and The Immortals quartets. Read more
