Katsa has been able to kill a man with her bare hands since she was eight—she’s a Graceling, one of the rare people in her land born with an extreme skill. As niece of the king, she should be able to live a life of privilege, but Graced as she is with killing, she is forced to work as the king’s thug. When she first meets Prince Po, Graced with combat skills, Katsa has no hint of how her life is about to change. She never expects to become Po’s friend. She never expects to learn a new truth about her own Grace—or about a terrible secret that lies hidden far away . . . a secret that could destroy all seven kingdoms with words alone.
Review:
I LOVED this book. Did I mention I loved this book? Everything about this book was so much fun. I loved seeing the transformation of Katsa, seeing her realize her true self. And I think Po may be my new literary boyfriend. Funny, smart, charming....
I'm so glad book 2 is out and book 3 out very soon!! I can't wait to see what happens next!
Just have to add that whoever borrowed book 2 from the library better return it!! It's a week overdue and I'm next in line!! I want it please!! May have to resort to the downloadable library. Just not the same though :(
