In the Hand of the Goddess: Song of the Lioness #2 Free Audiobook Download by Tamora Pierce


The sequel to Song of the Lioness, a popular book and series of fantasy novels characterizing Alanna, a young woman from the kingdom of Tortall who disguises herself as a boy in order to become a knight. In The Hand of the Goddess, Alanna must go on her own journey to find out everything about herself, instead of relying on others for advice.

I feel like Tamora Pierce's Song of the Lioness series is just so good, but I'm always so busy with other things that I never end up getting around to reading it. Hearing this audiobook made me want to rush right out and finally read the whole series!

In the Hand of the Goddess is an empowering tale that spans a lifetime, following the journey of Alanna of Trebond and her young apprentice, Briar Moss. As they grow into womanhood in a royal court of intrigue, they each have to face their own struggles with power not just in their own lives but in the wider world.

Trini Alvarado is an Author, Narrator, and Producer of audiobooks. After working for over 10 years in the industry she wanted to leave the business and make a change that would make a difference in other people's lives. She left behind her career and moved to Guatemala where she created Zunzuneo, a group of Guatemalan women producing their own audiobooks on mobile phones.

The story picks up from where the first book left off. Alanna has been crowned queen of Tortall, but she still doesn't know what happened to her parents. She eventually finds them but she is torn because they want to send her back to Carthak, but she is a girl, and there are no girls in the palace. Alanna goes through some tough times as she makes her choices and grows into herself.

This is a powerful story about women of color in our society. Alyssa's story is similar to many other girls who have high hopes for themselves but are faced with different obstacles. It also gives you an opportunity to be inspired by some strong female characters as well as Tamora Pierce's amazing writing style.
