[wyvernfriend]

This series is an old favourite. The idea of babies who couldn't life getting a place in the world where in fact they were more powerful than most. Nancia is new to service, she comes from a powerful family and she is trying to do the right thing by her training and her family. This is a coming of age story and a lesson to Nancia in her place in the world and her relationship with people.

It's an interesting story, delving occasionally into issues like family relationships and honour; how sometimes even if someone appears to be good or evil they aren't and how sometimes people grow apart.

This isn't my first read of this story, nor will it be my last. This year I've been revisiting Anne McCaffrey because of her death and it's a bittersweet joy to read this.
