Hidden Warrior by Lynn Flewelling
reviewed by Cindy Lynn Speer
King Erius, who managed to seize power when the last queen died out, refuses to allow the prophecy to come to pass. Instead he slaughters mercilessly: priests, wizards, the original people who inhabited Skala, anyone who even speaks of the prophecy. This caused some people to take pretty drastic measures. The King, determined never to have a girl child around to try and take the throne from him, has had any eligible daughter killed. His sister, who gives birth to twins, kills her own newborn son, and with the help of a witch uses his likeness to cover his sister.

Tobin wakes up after a harrowing experience in which he discovered that he is really a she, but imprisoned in a boy's body. But this boy's body is the body Tobin is used to, has lived in for twelve years! There is hardly time to brood over it, though, as there are serious problems all around: his squire and best friend is severely wounded, maybe dying; his horrible guardian wants him back under control; his uncle, the king, who ordered the deaths of all warrior women and their babies, might be coming back from the wars. And weaving eerily in and out of real life is Brother, the demonic ghost of Tobin's dead twin brother, who is gaining powers of his own.

Although this is the 3rd book in the Nightrunner series, you won't be missing key plot points in previous novels since each stands neatly alone. Here, the warrior Queen Idrilain of Skala lies dying from wounds received in battle against the fierce armies of neighbouring Plenimar. Idrilain knows Skala will fall unless her people can convince the magical Aurënfaie to ally with them. This is a fast-paced fantasy adventure with fully realized characters and more than enough intrigue, magic, and danger to hold your attention.
