Here, Pierce gives fans exactly what they want—a smart, savvy heroine making a name for herself on the mean streets of Tortall’s Lower City—while offering plenty to appeal to new readers as well!

And there’s a rather heartbreaking bit about one of the Cage dogs in particular, how she left the street beat and became a Cage dog that’s the professional bloorhound, basically for the sake of her kids, in order to stay safe so she could raise them without worrying that she was going to bloodhoudn, but the job has inured her to enacting violence upon the helpless so much that she’s started hitting her kids.

Mastiff: Beka Cooper, Book 3 Book Review
Iceblade Regengar is a graduate of Carthak University — his gift is in wind and weather magic, so he’s a mage on a peregrine ship — and Farmer can’t stand him for some very good reasons. The following section contains spoilers about Bloodhound. So when Lord Provost Gershom recruits Beka; her scent hound, Achoo; and her human partner, Tunstall, to lead a top-secret Hunt, she’s relieved to have a distraction.
It’s been such a great visit to this world that I think I might stick around for a little while. Her tough, wise, and wonderful heroines have inspired generations of readers. Return to Book Page.
