The Blue Sword by Robin McKinley
Description: A childhood favorite. A young woman finds magic, adventure and a touch of romance in a magical mountain kingdom.

I wish she’d write more books in this universe. Daria is basically Afghanistan at the time of the Raj. Quazi Britain to the south and demons (sorry Russia) to the north.

It’s a wonderfully realized world. Full of layers of texture and a sense of historical depth.

And Angahard, or Harry as she prefers to be called, is a wonderfully restless girl dream. I wanted to steal away. Be given a beautiful horse like sunlight. Discover magic in my heritage. Duel on horseback. Have an adventure. Have this adventure in this little tiny mountain kingdom.

But really, reading it in a book is so much tidier and less dusty.
