"The Arcane Order of Carpet Flyers! The Sublime Society of Scudders! Didn't you read the contract I sent you, Miss Drake?" Sure, Renny had read it. Obviously it was some kind of joke. And this guy with the flakes of pie crust in his beard, he is obviously some kind of whacko. But no. Parnell Florian is no whacko - and Maysa, the ancient silk-brocade carpet now rolled up under her bed, is no joke. It really can fly, and Renny's life just got a whole lot more interesting. And when she meets the other members of the Order - her flock - life gets more interesting still. Most interesting of all is the boy called Stonechat, who seems to find her pretty interesting as well. But when a vengeful rug-rider called Mistral kidnaps Parnell and steals the all-important Orb of Descrying, Renny and the ragtag flock of misfits must ride to the rescue - or else face an adversary who can control their very dreams. One by one, all the people Renny has come to care about fall into Mistral's hands, and she must find courage and ingenuity she never knew she had. A modern day fantasy that Publisher's Weekly called: "A great combination of fantasy, adventure, and romance...an engaging and enjoyable read," The Flight of the Wren is, at its core, a story of family. Estranged from her mentally-ill mother, bounced from one foster home to another, Renny feels no connection to anyone in her life. In her darkest moments she fears that she will never really care about anyone...only to find out that having someone you really care about can be the scariest thing of all. And that sometimes the hardest part about flying is just learning to hang on.

Young Wren had been hammered out of shape more often than she could remember. Fourteen was too young to be thrown headlong into the underbelly of a city that hit so hard and cared so little, but the city was all she knew. At night she would dream of unimaginable power, but every time she awoke, she felt weaker, and she bucked against that weakness like a rat in a cage.In Book 1 of the Wren Stories, see a cold, desperate world through the eyes of a girl filled with fire. Follow Wren's shaking steps through a city buffeted by terror, and learn how the strongest steel can only be shaped by the hardest hammer blows.Wren flies the nest only to be caged, and flees her cage to find that clipped wings can regrow, and a heart bent out of shape can be reforged. She adapts to find safety in the shadows that once scared her, sees hope bloom in a place she thought was dead, and learns in the hardest way possible that the only way to survive in the city is to stay low, think fast, and strike first.

'This fascinating biography . . . A perfect Christmas present for any birder' Birdwatching From the BESTSELLING AUTHOR of The Robin: A Biography, STEPHEN MOSS: The wren is a paradox of a bird. They are Britain's most common bird, with 8.5 million breeding pairs and have by far the loudest song in proportion to their size. They also thrive up and down Britain and Ireland: from the smallest city garden to remote offshore islands, blustery moors to chilly mountains.Yet many people are not sure if they have ever seen a wren. Perhaps because the wren is so tiny, weighing just as much as two A4 sheets of paper, and so busy, always on the move, more mouse than bird. However if we cast our eyes back to recent history wrens were a mainstay of literary, cultural and popular history. The wren was on postage stamps and the farthing, it featured in nursery rhymes and greetings cards, poems and rural 'wren hunts', still a recent memory in Ireland particularly. With beautiful illustrations throughout, this captivating year-in-the-life biography reveals the hidden secrets of this fascinating bird that lives right on our doorstep.

Published in 1972, The Song of the Wren contains some light entertainments in the style of the Uncle Silas tales, alongside some more serious stories concerning thwarted love, love triangles, and, in two of the cases, the violence that comes out of psyches twisted by love. 'The Song of the Wren' features the intriguing Miss Shuttleworth as she spars with a young sociologist conducting a survey on various issues, leaving him dumfounded by her apparently mad behaviour and no more appreciative of nature than when he started. She appears again in 'Oh! Sweeter Than the Berry' where she proves herself more than a match for a visiting minister. Convincing him to try one homemade potion after another, she engages the tipsy Reverend in a theological debate until, stunned, he wobbles away and falls to his knees to pray for her. Taking a darker, more abstract turn 'The Man Who Loved Squirrels' is a tale of a woodsman who works alone and lives with his mother, finding company only in the forest's squirrels. A chance meeting with a traveling London woman disrupts his life and ends in tragedy. 'The Tiger Moth' depicts an affair between an airman and a schoolteacher, whose husband is missing in action. The tale hearkens back to Bates's war-time Flying Officer X stories in style, flight accounts, and pilot jargon. The bonus story 'Music for Christmas', first published in 1951, is a comic portrayal of provincial rivalries, involving a musical snob with London tastes, a north Midlands woman favouring local talent, and, relaying gossip and innuendo between the two, a grocery deliveryman.

Every year on St Stephen's Day, Wren Silke is chased through the forest in a warped version of a childhood game. Her pursuers are judges -- a group of powerful and frightening boys who know nothing of her true identity. If they knew she was an augur, their sworn enemy, the game would be up. This year, the tension between judges and augurs is at breaking point. Wren's survival, and that of her family, depends on her becoming a spy in the midst of these boys she fears most and using her talent, her magic, to steal from them the only thing that can restore her family's former power for good. But Wren's talent comes with a price. The more she uses it, the more she loses her grip on reality and soon she's questioning everything she's ever known about her family, about augurs and judges, and about the dangerous tattooed stranger who most definitely is not on her side.
