I should reread the Dalemark books. I read The Spellcoats first (it was one of the two DWJ books I found at the grocery store within a two week period. The other was Charmed Life) and liked that a lot. I must have been at least sixteen or I wouldn't have been able to buy myself books. For some reason, I didn't much like Drowned Ammet when I got it through interlibrary loan. I think there were things about it that I just didn't get. The Crown of Dalemark didn't come out until several years later, and I got more into the stuff in it that connected to The Spellcoats than I did anything else. I think I unfairly blamed it for not being more like The Spellcoats. I kind of liked Cart and Cwidder, but at the time, I'm not sure I connected it to either The Spellcoats or Drowned Ammet.
