It is perhaps uplifting to have a teenage heroine who purges her precious hair because it gets in her way living in a world of teens obsessed with their self-image. Kristin Cashore’s unconventional and engrossing first novella‚ “Graceling‚” has such a heroine. Katsa is hard-hitting‚ stubborn‚ beautiful‚ and consumed by unrelenting ethical concerns.

I guess his character is supposed to be a cipher‚ but the part is undercooked to the point of rawness‚ and Eldard’s male-model blankness makes him seem more like a leftover cyborg from "Terminator 3" than a plausible loose-cannon
