Heh. Old favorite, and in many ways the antithesis of modern trends. 20-year-old heroine is about as far from an angsty lovelorn YA plot as you can get. Technically there is a love triangle, which the heroine doesn't clue in on for 80% of the book, because what sensible person would think about courtship amid an active-duty assignment? It makes me long for a sequel to continue the plot.

esurient So glad this was reissued with different cover art. I hadn't realized how silly this 1994 cover looks until now. 6y

esurient (This is listed as book five in a series, but it's a standalone that shares a setting with Wrede's very first published books. This one is the best of them IMO.) 6y

This post is for @TheLondonBookworm who has Raven Ring - I just want to show you the other novels by Wrede set in her world of Lyra! Turnabout is fair play - you wreak havoc with my TBR routinely 📚
Many know her YA Sorcery&Cecelia series and even more her young reader Enchanted Chronicles. Before those she was writing awesome high fantasy in the '80s. These recent editions are slightly revised with matching covers - time for me to #reread!

TheLondonBookworm Such a cruel lady! 😂😂 but I accept your retaliation with glee!!! I also have that exact edition of the raven ring which is kinda cool 😎ah ma gaaad I have so many more to collect this makes me happy 👍👍💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙 8y

elkeOriginal @TheLondonBookworm There is absolutely no correct order! When I was obsessed in the late '90s they were all out of print so I read them as I found them - you are so lucky they are available & in a matchy set now! I do remember Shadow Magic was my fave and Raven Ring was the ONLY one ever in hardcover (yes, I have that 😁). Happy collecting!

Shadow Magic

I-read-and-eat My BF makes me put other things on the list as well. He doesn't want to just buy books. ... 😉 8y

BeththeBookDragon No one buys me books because they have no idea what I have read and what I haven't 😕 8y

PatriciaU ❤️❤️❤️Golem and the Jinni 8y

Laura317 Books and Doctor Who dvds make up my entire list. 🙂 8y

Bookzombie @BeththeBookDragon I rarely get a book either or even bookish stuff. 8y

rabbitprincess @BeththeBookDragon My parents are like that with me too! Although now my mum and I are friends on Goodreads, so maybe they'll have a better idea of my reading habits that way 😉 8y

Bookworm54 I tend to write a list of several books for my present buyers to go through. That way whatever they pick is something on my tbr that I do not have, and also a semi-surprise! Haha 8y

TheLondonBookworm @Lacythebookworm ☺️☺️☺️☺️ 8y

TheLondonBookworm @I-read-and-eat hehehe I've not yet mastered 'other things' ☺️ 8y

TheLondonBookworm @TrishB haha but what else do you need except books!? Book shelves? :) 8y

TheLondonBookworm @BeththeBookDragon ah hence the list! They can just pick what ever books from the list :) (I won't be getting all these sadly) 8y

TheLondonBookworm @PatriciaU really hoping I get that one! 8y

TheLondonBookworm @Laura317 well that is a class list! I'll admit this paper is actually double sided so there are twice as many books as pictured 😂😂😂😂 8y

TheLondonBookworm @Bookzombie do people get bored of just buying you books? I get that complaint a lot! 8y

TheLondonBookworm @rabbitprincess hehe that's such a good idea! 8y

TheLondonBookworm @Bookworm54 I'm the same! This list is actually two pages long and they just pick whatever from it :) I wish I could have them all though... 😂 8y

TrishB @TheLondonBookworm I know 😀😀 8y

LeahBergen 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 8y

Bookzombie @TheLondonBookworm I think they just don't know what to get me. 8y
