I think it's a great addition to the series. Readers should know by now, after having spent two books with Miri, that she is up to the challenge and that she'll always find some way to resolve things well. Miri will have to be creative and brave and persistent. Does Miri have what it take to meet this new challenge in her life? How can she train these three when all they're concerned about is surviving: having enough food to eat day by day?! Swamp life is completely different from mountain life or city life. She'll be going away, far away, to teach three sisters-discarded members of the royal family. It seems war with a neighboring country is pending, and, she is needed as a teacher at a new princess academy. The king has need of her, and she can hardly refuse his request. Apparently she hasn't earned her happily ever after just yet. Life couldn't really get any better for her. And she'll be traveling with the love of her life, Peder. The book opens with Miri so very excited to go back home to her mountain, to her father and sister. I enjoyed reading The Forgotten Sisters by Shannon Hale, the third in the Princess Academy series.
