Harry Crewe, the Homelander orphan girl, is pleased with her new home. Life in Istan is certainly easy, but a voice in her ear whispers that the home of her heart is among the Hillfolk, among the descendants of Lady aerin, who once wielded Gonturan, the Blue Sword. --https://www.recordedbooks.com/title-details/9781449872250

Review of 'The Blue Sword' on 'Goodreads'

When I started reading it was interesting, the world building is important for new landscapes or cultures or how the magic works, but when I reached half the book and it just didn't seem to start... I suspected the worst. And then suddenly I finished and... Nothing really happens. Nothing. It's very plain.
I stumbled upon it because it's supposed to be an old school classic fantasy book. And I understand that in the 80's to have important women in books (The MC and most of the myths revolve around women) was something daring. But... it has just so many wrong points, technically speaking, that don't make this a good book.
