Don't read The Blue Sword. It will raise your blood pressure. It's dances with horses. The plot goes something like this: Free willed and penniless young blueblood, Harry Crew goes to live at a frontier colonial outpost with her soldier brother upon the death of their father. Although everybody is nice, Harry doesn't fit in until the king of the extremely reduced people her people are trying to colonize kidnaps her because his magic orders him to, oh, and while he's doing that, he's trying to convince the colonials that the Northern demons are coming to kill them all. So Harry is trained by the king and his men to be an awesome warrior, she beats all of the natives except the king, and it turns out that one of her great grandmothers or something was a native princess, and then gets to use the Blue Sword of Aerin, a major native relic to beat the Northerners back, and then settles down and marries the (middle aged) king and starts competing with her brother's wife, who is a mysterious native warrior, over how many kids they can pop out. Yeah.
