Story
In the medieval and fantastic realm of Tortall, Keladry of Mindelan (known as Kel) is the first girl to take advantage of the decree that permits females to train for knighthood. Up against the traditional hazing of pages and a grueling schedule, Kel faces only one real roadblock: Lord Wyldon, the training master of pages and squires. He is absolutely against girls becoming knights. But Kel is not a girl to underestimate.

At the same time, Alanna makes an enemy of the prince's uncle, the overly charming Duke Roger.

My Journey With Kel
Squire has become my favourite of the Quartet so far (I still have Lady Knight to listen to /read so that might change). I have really enjoyed the Protector of the Small books and Keladry. I love that Tamora choose to write her second Lady Knight non-gifted to show that even without magic girls can be knights just as much as boys. It took me awhile to get used to Bernadette Dunne's way of narrating but now I love her and couldn't imagine anyone else narrating these books.

Great story, okay performance
If you could sum up Squire in three words, what would they be?
Really awesome storyline.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Nealan of Queenscove will always be my favorite. I love the relationship he has with Kel, where they have each other's backs no matter what.
Did Bernadette Dunne do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
This is the one thing I didn't like. Yes, Bernadette Dunne did a good job differentiating the characters from one another. However, I didn't enjoy the voice she used for Kel. It was kind of nasally and I didn't think it would be the kind of voice that a girl between the ages of 14 and 18 would have. That could just be a personal preference.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, but unfortunately I couldn't. As with any audiobook, it was simply too long.
Any additional comments?
It's a really good story, with a really strong female protagonist. I highly recommend it.

Terrible narrator
Pretty sure the narrator didn’t even listen to the other books, didn’t even attempt to understand how the characters were set up to sound to begin with. Everybody sounded like an old woman.

My absolute fave Tortall series!
This series has got to be my favorite of all of the Tortallan stories. Kel is an amazing character and I just love her and her rowdy friends. I adore getting to follow up with beloved characters from Song of the Lioness, I just can't get enough. I'm not sure what it is about Kel that makes me prefer her over the rest. She is just so much more relatable to me. Tamora Peirce does an amazing job with her characters and there is always something for everyone! I will say after getting the full cast audio version of The Immortals, the narration on this series is a bit of a disappointment. I wish I could be more excited about it but the voices seem "wrong" and I wish I didn't feel that way. I am so thankful to be able to listen to these stories that I loved as a teen!

One of my favorites
This has to be close to my favorite book of all time. Kell is such a role model and so real. The end makes me cry every time!
