Huh, really? I haven't read the book, but I read an essay about Keladry and she sounds like the biggest Sue that ever Sued.

[loracarol]

I think, the thing with Kel (for me, at least), is that yes, she has all these skills- and we see her work for them. She's really good at the lance, but she's been working her ass off at it for years. She's strong, but she started with weighted equipment.

Her being the daughter of an ambassador (and the skills she learned there) can come off as kind of Sue-ish at times, I won't lie; her martial arts skills/naginata skills, for example, but with the naginata, she gets up at five every morning to practice, and the martial arts knowledge gets her ostracized, by both students (who think she's showing off) and teachers (such as the archery teacher, who humiliates her in front of the group for not knowing how to shoot a Tortallian-style bow, and screwing up).

YMMV and all that, etc. etc. etc.
