Igraine The Brave
By Cornelia Funke
I clung to every word of the audio version of this book for hours on a three day car ride. I took the ride twice. This book was amazing both times, with an exquisite vocabulary and a great plot overall! Igraine grew up in a very powerful family of sorcerers. They live in a magical castle that spews fire and own singing magic books. The only problem is, Igraine has absolutely NO INTENTION of being a wizard when she grows up. She'd rather be a proper knight! Just before her birthday, her parents are suddenly turned into pigs on accident! Igraine has to go on a quest to get giant hairs, which will turn her parents back into-well-parents! Along the journey she meets the Sorrowful Knight of the Mount of Tears, a knight who is haunted by his failure. He agrees to escort her on her dangerous mission back home. Only, when Igraine gets home, she'll have to use every knightly bone in her body to protect the singing books from someone more dangerous then she could ever imagine... --BKS reviews

I JUST finished the book. It is by far the most interesting of the 3 Luciana books. It talks about how she and Clair survive earthquakes, fires, and finally learn how to be friends.

I like books that you can really visit the places they talk about and some of the statues are real and you can see them just like lily and her mom did.This book is neat because it makes you feel like you are really seeing the animals.

SPOILER ALERT This book is really sweet and it's about how everyone thinks that sparrow is trying to kill herself and this book tells us about mother daughter relationships and love no matter what, that even if people think you did something that you didn't do is not an option because otherwise people will be very convinced that you did.
