The first books I read by Sherwood Smith was COURT DUEL, then CROWN DUEL, then WREN's WAR. I must say, no other author writes such tricky plots with clever and delightfully written story. I like the sentences, they were written very differently from the average author, making it interesting.

WREN TO THE RESCUE is out of print now, so you have to buy this book and WREN's QUEST before you run out of time! I wish I hadn't waited, now I'm one book short.

Hopefully it isn't just a quartet =P

Anyway, this series is simply fantastic! A friend recommended it to me, so it bought it, all three of them. Guess what? I finished all of them on the same day. And no, I don't usually finish multiple books in one day. I absolutely love her writing style, it's not difficult to read, and extremely lively and interesting. I have no idea why hardly anyone knows of her books, they are simply fantastic! As for the books, I especially loved the ending to Wren's War ;)

ps. Does anyone know of any good Wren fanfiction out there? I can't find any, FanFiction.Net has very little. Thanks.

Hello! Got good news to tell you, Wren Journeymage is coming up in 2005 or somewhere around there. Just heard it myself! I am happy as anything.

Anyway. Wren's War was fantastic. I like it that Sherwood Smith didn't focus the whole thing with Wren as the heroine all the time. She gave Wren's friends a chance to shine as well. Yup. You HAVE to read this.

Mothers and fathers, guardians of all walks of life should get this book for their daughter, it has lesson to be learned all stuffed in a delightful giddy tale of a girl growing up. Oh yeah, Court Duel was good too, don't forget that one.

While I enjoyed all three Wren books, I found this one to be a little weak in the end. The war ended somewhat abruptly. I also felt that, while it was obvious the author wanted to leave things a little open-ended for a potential sequel, there were loose ends that should have been tied up before finishing the story.

Generally I think it was a good book, but it could have been better.

Wren is a girl who turns into animals, yeah, sounds cheesy, but is was actually very good. If this doesn't interest you, try Court Duel, that'll do it.

Sherwood Smith rules!

I swear this is the best book I have read so far in my life. Considering I have only been here for about 15 years, this sweet blend of magic, tradition, loyalty, friendship, love, and above all life is a fresh breath of air to me.

Ok my favorite of the three books. I guess I liked that they all grew up a little and that things got a little more serious for the land and characters. Wren is on of my favorite female characters. You just never knew what she was going to come up with next but she was so human. I also discovered there is a kindle book called Wren Journeymage that is a squeal to this book. her web sight is also very informative and will tell you the order of her books.

Oh, I did like the other Wren books - felt a little let down about this one. Sherwood Smith is usually a very consistent writer. This one just not quite up to par.

Overall, a wonderful book, and a wonderful series. My Thoughts is that in"Wren to The Rescue" we'll see a develooping relationship between Wren and Connor. Also, my suspect is that Wren is part Iyon Dain (Hope I spelled that correctly).
