This is a difficult book to review. On the one hand, it's beautifully written, the prose is fantastic, and the backstory has clearly been meticulously planned out. On the other hand, not much happens and that backstory makes things a little confusing.Wren is an Augur, one branch of the old Druids of Ireland. Augurs are at war with Judges, the other branch, over magical sites called nemeta. Without nemeta, each side loses their powers. A nemeta can only work for either augurs or judges, not both. The judges are 'winning' at the moment, with more and stronger nemeta than the augurs have. Wren's coven come up with a risky plan to have her work for the area's leading judge to look for a map that will help them find nemeta. At least, that's what Wren is told is the plan.Of course there's a handsome boy judge, and of course there's double crossing and confusion and changes of information and Wren wavering from one group to the other. By the time the story ends I'm honestly not 100% sure which side she's on; I'm fairly sure I know, but not certain.The story's unmoored in time, too. There's one mention of Coke and one of a Kardashian. If not fir those I would have guessed 100 years ago.Apart from those things, though, it's a good, interesting story, and I'll be watching out for the sequel.Receiving an ARC did not alter my opinion in any way.
Tl;dr: A fresh, exciting contemporary/historical fantasy novel aimed at young adults but good for adults as well.The Wren Hunt is so good! The first few chapters might be a bit confusing for those unfamiliar with Irish/Celtic mythology as Ms. Watson starts the novel with a (literal) chase and doesn't let up the pace at all-- rather than going for the typical " here's all the info!" dump found in so many fantasy novels, you're left, much like Wren, the mc is, to figure it all out.The writing is lyrical and concise--there isn't a word wasted here. As for the plot, no spoilers except to say there are several twists in The Wren Hunt, most of which aren't surprising but one, at least for me, was as unexpected as it was for Wren. I love it when a novel surprises me!I also have to say that it was utterly refreshing to have the main male charcter's name be Tarquin. I mean, Tarquin! Granted, he goes by Tarc, but still. Given that use of the name usually inspires a character who is a total prat, I loved seeing it repurposed so awesomely.And! The way The Wren Hunt mixes contemporary and historical, fantasy and folklore--and does it all without being hundreds and hundreds of pages? Awesome with a side of fabulous!Finally, I do hope this a stand alone! I loved the ending, which didn't tie everything up--and I adore that because life very rarely ends neatly and it's wonderful when novels do that: show you a world, make you care, and let you go with a kiss of hope as you leave.I do think The Wren Hunt will appeal to teen readers--I am certainly going to do my best to get it to Maggiec Stiefvaetr fans and even all the fantasy readers who think they don't like contemporary novels, and I think it would appeal to adult readers as well, especially those looking for a well written and fast paced contemporary novel that mixes fantasy, folklore, and even mystery in a fresh way.I did receive an ARC, but liked this so much I preordered it, and will be investigating Ms. Hunt's backlist through The Book Depository.The Wren Hunt is a well written, fast paced, and unique novel that appeals to fans of almost any genre? What's not to love?! An easy five stars.
The Wren Hunt is a book about magical beings in our world, but I was totally unconvinced. It took me a long time to figure out where the setting was and even then I wasn't completely sure. I had a hard time juxtaposing T.V's and cans of Coke with the magical characters. They just didn't seem to mesh well together, despite the authors best efforts. I'm not expecting to everything about the magical world or how it operates but we weren't given enough throughout the beginning for me to really understand what was going on or how their world operated.We open to a scene where Wren is chased through the woods by boys from the rival magic gang(family?). Apparently this happens every year and a trophy is taken. It's unclear as to why they chase her and don't celebrate the Wren Hunt like the rest of the world. It's never mentioned why they don't go to the police about the chase or why it even happens at all. I'm not sure what the Wren Hunt is even about.I don't sympathize with Wren nor connect with her. I don't with any of the characters for that matter.I'm not sure what I was hoping to get from this book, but I certainly didn't get it. There was nothing that really stood out for me about this book and I spent most of the time confused and not really enjoying what I was reading.*Thank you to Netgalley for this review copy*
The Wren Hunt was such a unique book. I loved the mythology, the long-standing feud between the two magical factions, and the juxtaposition of magic and the modern world. The Augurs and the Judges were both intriguing, I liked that the author delved a bit into the history of the conflict and explained more about each side. There were also some great family dynamics. I enjoyed seeing how the relationships between characters developed and changed over the course of the book. However, the ending felt a little rushed and incomplete to me. I was left with a lot of unanswered questions about the world and how certain aspects of the book tied in. Although this is a standalone, the ending really felt more like a setup for a sequel. That being said, The Wren Hunt was still an overall enjoyable read.Disclaimer: I received this book for free from the publisher. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
