“Sandry: "I am silly, now and then. My mother said I was, anyway."
Daja: "If you know, you can stop it."
Sandry: "Then you've never been silly or you'd know it just creeps up without any warning.”

“A girl nearby muttered,"If that's a lady, I'm a cat."
Reaching out, Sandry lifted the pitcher of milk from the table. Cradling it in both hands, she walked over to the mutterer.
I am Sandrilene fa Toren, daughter of Count Mattin fer Toren and his countess, Amiliane fa Landreg. I am the great-niece of his grace, Duke Vedris of this realm of Emelan, and cousin of her Imperial Highness, Empress Berenene of the Namorn Empire. You are Esmelle ei Pragin, daughter of Baron Witten en Pragin and his lady Colledia of House Wheelwright, a merchant house. If I tell you my friend is a lady, then you"- carefully she poured milk into Esmelle's plate-"you had best start lapping, kitty."
She set the pitcher down and returned to her chair.”

Add a CommentPierce's style never gets old and her characters will always stick with you. Though the title may suggest a focal point on Sandry, the story really centers equally on all 4 children: Daja, Tris, Briar, and Sandry as they struggle to master their unique powers. An easy read with plenty of development, banter, and drama!
I love this series, this was a perfect introduction to all the characters and their world.
Pierce's Alanna (Lioness) quartet is one of my favorites, so now I'm going back to read the rest of her canon while waiting for the new one (Tempests and Slaughter). She continues to keep my attention and entertain! Reading this one has inspired me to finish the series!
It's the First Book!!!! Definetley read this one, you get to see these four amazing people as they grow and find their magics.
Light yet engaging, Circle of magic weaves the stories of Sandry, Tris, Daja, and Briar together to bring you into the world of Emelan. Through her characters and effortless storytelling, Pierce is able to suspend readers in her exciting world of magic. I can’t wait to slip into her world once again.
A fun book. I would have enjoyed it more were it in 3rd person limited instead of omniscient. It also took me awhile to realize that the events in the beginning were happening at separate times. I found myself asking a lot "where is this going," but as the first book in the series, I think it was just setting up things to come.
A great beginning for the Circle of Magic series. Loved the various assortment of personnalities and gifts and how they dealt with it all in their own ways. A GREAT READ!!
I loved this book , it was a great read.
my favourite character was Briar.
I think thier begining life stories are great I wish they said more about them and I love niko
This was the first Tamora Pierce book I read, and I remember it took me a while to get into it, but it held my interest and by the end I was eager to read the rest of the Winding Circle books.
