Daja's Book

Sandry and Tris, seem very similar characters to me. Maybe because they both come from wealthy families, but they do have similar outlooks, while reacting each in her own way. Daja is totally different. A girl who was made trangshi after her family's ship went down, she dreams of returning to the Trader world. While she enjoys living with everyone, because they make her feel welcome. She loves learning the smith trade from Frostpine. But who knows, maybe, if given the chance she would leave them all behind for HER world. Her old world, anyway.

I really like how Tamora Pierce can capture the self-interest of children. It's innocent; not mean or contrary.
