Tamora Pierce

Thirteen-year-old DaIne has always had a knack with animals, but it's not until she's forced to leave home that she realizes it's more than a knack -- it's magic. With this wild magic, not only can Daine speak to animals, but also she can make them obey her. Daine takes a job handling horses for the Queen's Riders, where she meets the master mage Numair and becomes his student. Under Numair's guidance, Daine explores the scope of her magic. But she begins to sense other beings too: immortals. These bloodthirsty monsters have been imprisoned in the Divine Realms for the past four hundred years, but now someone has broken the barrier. It's up to Daine and her friends to defend their world from an immortal attack.

Wild Magic

Meagan Fischer 

Her writing had slightly improved from the first series in this universe. I mostly just read it to get back story on Protector of the Small.

I read this series for the first time when I was in middle school. After so many years, I wondered if I would still love it like I used to. The answer is yes, yes I do! Tamora Pierce is such a great writer and her characters are so much fun to read about. I would highly recommend this series to young and older readers alike!

Manon van Heumen

This book was too hard for me to follow. I immensely enjoyed the first chapter, but from there on, I felt my attention lacking. I do want to give this book another try on audio, see if I like it better.

Young Daine's knack with horses gets her a job helping the royal horsemistress drive a herd of ponies to Tortall. Soon it becomes clear that Daine's talent, as much as she struggles to hide it, is downright magical Horses and other animals not only obey, but listen to her words.
