Really awesome! This is a really exciting page turner. Kel is not the first girl to train to be a knight, but the other one was disguised as a boy. Worse, she isn't even allowed to see the other lady knight. She is given one year to prove herself as a page, and she isn't accepted very easily. There are mean pages, battles, disapproving teachers that might get her expelled, and much more! Super exciting!
