Wild Magic by Tamora Pierce

Young Daine's knack with horses gets her a job helping the royal horsemistress drive a herd of ponies to tortall. It soon becomes clear that Daine's talent, despite her struggles to hide it, its downright magical. Horses and other animals not only obey the mysterious girl, they come to her and seem to listen to her words. But Daine will have to learn to trust humans before she can come to terms with her powers, her past, and herself.

Set in Tortall during the reign of King Jonathan III and Queen Thayet, Wild Magic is the first book of the immortals series, which chronicles the time when the world is invaded by immortal creatures and a girl is born with a magical power that could restore the very balance of nature.

  1. This is a pretty fantastic book I can say. I have read at least 3/4 of this book last summer but was not constantly reading it so i didn't get as much out of it as I could have. I am usually not a huge fan of 'older' books but this one actually brings me right in. Also, it is fantasy. I am not usually a fan of that either. I have not gotten very far into the book yet, maybe the first five pages but what I can say so far is that the plot starts right up and there is nothing really boring and it doesn't really drag on. I have already learned a few things about Daine already.
