The late fourth addition to that series is embarrassingly bad. I think she wrote it in response to the (justified) accusations of internalised misogyny in the original three books ("weak as woman's magic, wicked as woman's magic") but that's not enough to make a good book. The original trilogy was great children's fiction and I prefer not to remember reading the fourth.

First two parts are great, I just can't get past the opening of the 3rd for some reason. Must try again!
Also read. Rotherweird recently, which I thought was quite good. Something a bit different.
