Fan Casting The Song of the Lioness

Alanna of Trebond desires to become a knight of the realm of Tortall. However, this is at a time when girls are forbidden to be warriors. Rather than giving up her dream, she and her twin brother–who wants to be a mage, not a knight–switch places. She becomes Alan; Thom becomes a student wizard in the school where she would have learned to be a lady. The 4 books follow Alanna's story about her fighting her way to knighthood!
