I read this series several years ago, and re-read it occasionally. The first book was a bit slow, but works very well as an ignorant-peasant-going-out-and-learning-about-the-world book. It opens the character up and makes her more real, as she starts out as a serious stereotype.
There is, in fact, another book in this series - Oath of Fealty - which came out in March. I have not yet read it, as I am cheap, and it is expensive for me just yet.
