Another point I should add is that the magic system is different from that in Tortall. So instead of the characters changing series to series, they stay mostly the same. It follows four children as they learn to accept, control and harness their magic. The Emelan/Circle universe is a bit different. The Numair Chronicles, TP’s newest trilogy (the first book is set to be released in February 2018), takes place before the events in Immortals, but after the events in Song of the Lioness and so on… One of the exciting things about this world is that many of the earlier characters show up in the later books as side characters! So… Beka Cooper takes place 200 years before the start of The Song of the Lioness. These are the books in chronological order by time, NOT PUBLICATION. The Tortall realm is composed of multiple series, each following a different main character. Many of these lands are inspired by countries, cultures, and belief systems that we are probably somewhat familiar with. I love the diversity of the Tortall Universe. While the majority of the books in this world are set in Tortall, many of the characters either travel to or interact with people from the neighbouring lands. THE TWO WORLDSįirst things first, I wanted to talk about the two different worlds. While those kinds of characters are very common these days, they weren’t back in the 80s, so Tammy has done a lot for the world of fantasy and writing in general! 2. On top of that, I feel like she’s also one of the first authors who started writing strong, independent, confident female main characters. She pretty much kicked off the whole genre with her books. I like to consider her as one of the OG YA (Young Adult) authors. Tammy started writing in the 80s, so most of us weren’t even born yet. Most of you have probably never heard of her. While you can easily Google this and find her website, I thought I’d say a little bit about the author herself.
So…I decided the best way to do this would be to write a blog post! Don’t worry, I will include a spreadsheet at the very end 🙂 1. I’ve lost count how many times I’ve been asked the question: Which Tamora Pierce book should I pick up first? And after my last post, I got asked to make a spreadsheet of how to read her books in order. Hello!! I’m so glad you’ve found your way to this post! I’m hoping it will be as informative as possible for those of you interested in diving into the world of Tamora Pierce!
