Read Online Ebook The Legendary Inge, by Kate Stradling
Plagued by misfortune, Ingrid Norling treks into the woods to clear her head. She emerges a monster-slayer, the shaken executioner of a creature so ferocious that even the king’s strongest warriors could not destroy it. In a land that reveres swords and worships strength, this accidental heroism earns Inge an audience at court and a most ill-fated prize: King Halvard impulsively adopts her and names her as his heir. Under constant guard to prevent her escape, Inge confronts the ignoble underbelly of the royal court: a despotic king, a clueless princess, a proud warrior, and a dangerous intrigue. As secrets unravel around her and the castle threatens to become an elaborate deathtrap, Inge must keep her wits close and her weapons closer. The monster in the woods was only the beginning.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Well developed characters, and a great interaction with the reader By Clare Rarely do I leave a book feeling like the time I spent in the world was well used - this was one of those few books.Characters:Inge: I loved loved loved how she related with her family and how passionate she was for them. She was complaining a bit much for me in the second half of the book, and really did seem to act the child that everyone treated her as, but at least she realized it and worked on it for the last bit.Raske: I particularly liked how confident he was with himself - not brassy or arrogant, just someone who knows their capabilities and the limits. I also liked how, due to his trained rather stoic personality, he thought he had "betrayed" himself a hundred times. The author did an excellent job making sure that all the character actions and words were actually in line with the character's personalities themselves, and I think Raske was the best example of this. I would've liked a bit more elaboration on his magic (did it come from his mother's culture, or from living with Halvard?).Gunnar: at first I didn't think I'd want even the few brief chapters dedicated to his point of view, but I actually really enjoyed it! It fleshed him out and got him past the overprotective-and-absolutely-witless brother cliche. He and Inge have a real and believable relationship.One of the things I particularly like about this book is that the author doesn't try to jump you with a huge twist without giving you some clues as to what's going to happen. I hate it in YA novels when the author sticks in a plot twist that doesn't respect the readers intelligence. On the other hand, it's extremely annoying when the reader gets huge hints about the characters or plot that the other characters can't seem to figure out, however obvious it is, and Stradling avoided this as well. I thought she was going to keep the father's legacy a "secret" and wait for a "big reveal" at the end of the book, but with this instance, as well as with most of the other secrets, she revealed it as soon as it was reasonable for the average-intelligence character to discover it - sometimes, even a little bit sooner. Thus, she avoided insulting the readers' AND the characters intelligence.Finally, my favorite part of the book was the family itself. A lot of YA novels tend to stick to absolute cardboard characters from character families (if they're even introduced at all), and this book did such an awesome job making the interactions between the siblings seem believable and funny. Despite the fact that their were seven siblings, Stradling did an awesome job developing each of them enough for the book, and not unnecessarily focusing on them and confusing readers.A few complaints:Inge's father and his swords. While I really loved this concept, at the same time I thought it should've been explained more. For example, *spoiler alert* the father has protected his children against what exactly? Dying by sword? Dying by malicious intent? This isn't really elaborated. Secondly, with the power that these swords have and the spell cast over the children, everyone takes it rather in stride. No one really seems to question the power of the father that he was able to cast these spells and how exactly he did it. I feel like more people should've spent time figuring out how he enchanted the swords than trying to find the enchanted swords themselves.I'm sorry this book isn't more popular than it is, for I would put it top of the list of at least the previous fifteen YA novels I've read. Thanks, Ms. Stradling, for an excellent read!

I read it aloud to my family on a road trip (and lost my voice for days in the process, but it was SO worth it!), and we all enjoyed it immensely. Thank you, Kate Stradling, for yet another great read! Looking forward to the next one...
