Rendition To Books A Robin McKinley Collection: Spindle's End, The Hero and the Crown and The Blue Sword (Folktales #1-3)
SPOILER ALERTMy book review is on The Hero and the Crown it is a fantasy. This book was actually better then I thought it was going to be. This book is about a girl who isn’t liked and she decides she wants to fight the big dragon. Her mom was a witchwoman and now she is heir to the king.
Aerin does not have a mom because she was the witchwoman and the reason the witchwoman is not alive is because once she figured out she was going to have a girl she killed her self. She did that because she wanted a boy to be the next king which then would have been her son.Now no one liked aerin because she was the witchwomans daughter. So aerin had wanted to go and kill the dragon but she didn’t know how she could not get burn by its hot flames. So she went out and figured out a mixture so she would pour it over her and then she wouldn’t get burnt.
This book is very interesting I think the author did a good job showing that even no one liked her she went out and showed them that she is a good fighter and can do anything a guy can. The authors point I think was to show that girls are just as good as guys went it comes to fighting and all those things. I think that the author was a little to hard on aerin with the other characters. The problem that relates to us is that even thought everyone hates you overcome that and show them that you are just like them.
I would recommend this to people who are good with big words. Because this book has big words and names but I really liked this book in genral. I think you should read this book because it shows a lot of good points in it.

Aw...stories of down-to-earth women warriors....can't get enough of them...i love robin mckinley. i have read all her books. she just invites me into her stories. one author i read her stories again. I also love older children's lit
There are not enough words to describe how much The Hero and the Crown and the Blue Sword changed me as a child. I went from reading almost entirely non-fiction field guides about animals and dinosaurs to devouring every fantasy book I could get my hands on after reading these.
I didn't actually read this book. I read Dragon Heaven by Robin McKinley and I didn't find it on this site so I'm adding this one to make sure that I finish my reading challenge this year. Thats taking into consideration the fact that I actually got a life, and a demmanding job and got sucked into Netfix and Youtube.
I've reviewed these books individually.
I read these books ages ago, when female protagonists were not so hip. It's a great fantasy series, but it's been so long since I've read them, I can't fill in many details. Unfortunately that seems to be the case with books I've just finished as well.
Spindle's End was more of a 3, but The Blue Sword and The Hero and the Crown are excellent.
