Query: The BEST Robin McKinley Book

This is the best book Robin McKinley has written, even though I love her other ones also. Her telling of the story is masterful, and the story is not told in chronological order, but through a series of flashbacks in Part I that shifts to the present in Part II. Aerin, the main character, is the daughter of a king and a "witchwoman" who was only tolerated as the king's wife because the country needed an heir. Because Aerin was a woman, and the lack of respect given to her mother, she was not allowed to ascend the throne. Through a series of intricate and spectacular events, she creates a life for herself unlike anything anyone ever expected. Throughout the book, memorable and lively characters are introduced-- Tor, her one true friend, who will one day be king; Luthe, the mage who helps her discover her destiny; Galanna, whose only mission is to thwart her; and Talat, her loyal, brave horse with whom all of her adventures, sorrows, and triumphs are shared.
