What a delight this story is! Birdie is the perfect preteen daughter of our two hero's Xena and Gabrielle. This story will warm your heart, and keep a smile on your face through-out the read...it did mine! It makes you want more at the end...I can't wait to read the next part in the series..I enjoyed the addition of all of Onesock's new characters to the mix....especially Zephyr, the little black fox, ...is there such a thing? If you are looking for something different and special...this is it!

"I am Robin
Of the Warrior and Bard". I really like this story of Xena and Gabriel's tween daughter told from her perspective. It has great character's and a unique view of our favorite couple. - Anon - Nov-09-2007   

Great addition to the Xena canon.Birdie is the perfect combination of Xena & gabby's traits. Plus Cyrene's depiction is new & refreshing. A must read & that goes for all the sequels. - Anonymous - Dec-09-2010   

This is a fabulous series. They are all really well written and are a refreshing presentation of the X&G canon. Birdie is priceless!
You will be well rewarded to read the series up to the the last one, even if it is unfinished. - Georgia - Apr-30-2011

Highly engrossing and very well written. I read the entire (so far) series in two days. Just couldn't tear myself away! Truly refreshing addition to the Xena lexicon. OSB, carry on, please! - Plif05 - Feb-12-2012

Birdie and the following stories create an alternative timeline for Xena, Gab and their daughter Birdie. Normally I'm not an of stories with kids in them, but Birdie is just so likeable in that pull your hair out then hug her type of way. The whole series is highly recommended. - Stacia - Apr-16-2014

A very good light hearted read, a unique take on xena and gabrielle and just a lot of fun to read - goofstar - Apr-04-2008   

An excellent story, fun to read. Looking forward to the next adventure - Anonymous - Jul-15-2008   

I have read each and every one with great relish. The exuberance of youth tempered by the guidance from her parents, Birdie brings a refreshing insight into the lives, trials and tribulations of my favourite heroines. I can only hope for many more tales to come.

Excellent story; great sequel. Looking forward to more installments. - jd - Apr-08-2007   

This is a wonderful change of pace when writing about the bard and the warrior.I loved the series. It reminded me of when I was a kid and what I got into. Where is book 4? - Muphassaa - Apr-08-2007   

I have read each of the stories in the Birdie series. It is a beautifully well written story line. I especially love the fact that the story is through the eyes of Xena and Gabrielle's daughter. I am the mother of a 12 year old and can relate with the struggles they face parenting an adolescent. I can wait for the next installment!! - Xenangabfan - Aug-17-2008   

I hardly ever read short stories and make it a point to avoid unfinished stories, so it's really rare that I would read a one like this. I loved it. These stories are very well written and will touch your heart in a way that you will remember long after you have finished the story. I've laughed, cried and remembered lessons learned long ago and I highly recommend this series of stories. - Netta - Aug-24-2008   

I love this series. Birdie is such a wonderful daughter and the perfect blend of Gabrielle and Xena. It's uplifting to read the love the pours out from this story. Please, continue writing, Onesockbard, it brings the sunshine into my everyday life. Thank you for sharing this story! - Teresa - Jul-20-2012
