Reasonable ReviewerReasonable Reviewer: I enjoyed the Green Ember books a great deal.
These are wonderful stories for both kids and adults that feature characters with real flaws that work hard over the course of the stories to overcome their own shortcomings and do the right thing.
This book is set during the Green Ember series books time line.
There might be some spoilers if you have read the Green Ember, main series already, but this takes place on the Misty Mountain while action is occurring at other places in the seminal series.
The main character in this book is Jo Shanks who is a bunny from the wrong side of the burrow. His father died with huge debts and Jo voluntarily took those debts on. One of the things that his dad loved was serving in the bunny, Green Ember military until an injury discharged him. Jo has taken up the mantle to redeem his now deceased father's good name.
Jo suffers from some self doubt issues, and several times early in the story he hesitates to take action causing grief for him and those around him (including a combat case).
You meet the heroes from the Green Ember series, but they play supporting roles in this book.

Kindle Customer: The only negative comments are:
1 I wish it had been longer...
2 I wish I had somehow known that these three books come BEFORE the Green Ember trilogy so I could have read them in the right order.
3 I wish there were MANY MANY MORE....

Charissa Goode: I feel like S.D. Smith writes a lot like Tolkien, Lewis, and Andrew Peterson. P.S. I have read all of their books.
I am a christian myself and I love the way it relates to the Bible. I like how Tolkien, Lewis, and Peterson did the same in their stories also. I would like to give you a long story short of my book. ( it isn't published.) * No-va sko-sha
My story takes place in a peaceful world where the happy King and Queen rule. *Nova Scotia. They had three daughters Mariah, Lucia, and Cloe. One is the heir. There is also a poor girl named Mary. When the academy is over run by dwarfs and trolls a mysterious archer comes and saves Mary and a bunch of children. Princess Lucia gets captured and lies in the dungeon awaiting a rescuer. Who is the mysterious archer?
If you would like to know more please say so in a review. I will answer in a review on The Green Ember book one.

Fluit Momma: Don't leave out these "extra" books when reading The Green Ember series, we read them in order of release and the inbetween books were some of our favourites!

***Toy Collector***: There are fewer than 100 pages in this book, making it suitable for readers older than seven. Jo Shanks' journey to, though, and from Cloud Mountain with Pickett is chronicled here. Jo is a superb archer who is determined to overcome adversity.
On the eve of the war, he leaves Halfwind Citadel and heads to Cloud Mountain to ensure the Long Treaders are punished. The destiny of the kingdom is at stake, and what he discovers when the fighting starts, and King Jupiter's successor is revealed will put his principles to the test.
The short story succeeds because of the honesty and depth of the characters, as well as the realism of the situations they find themselves in. The story's genuine and meaningful connections to the human experience will motivate the reader to overcome the debilitating effects of remorse, humiliation, and despair about the future.
