Boon Reflection:
+ The effects are cumulative.  If you have two in play you gain 4 time as
    much life, and if you have three you gain 8 times as much.
    [Shadowmoor FAQ 2008/04/21]
+ If an effect sets your life total to a certain number, and that number is
    higher than your current life total, that effect will cause you to gain
    life equal to the difference.  This card will double that gain.  For
    example, if you have 13 life and Blessed Wind causes your life total
    to become 20, your life total will actually become 27.
    [Shadowmoor FAQ 2008/04/21]
+ This card does not cause you to gain life.  It causes other life-gaining
    effects to give you more life than they would have.

    attackers or declare blockers step, so it will have a lower power by the
    time combat damage is assigned. [Shadowmoor FAQ 2008/04/21]
+ If its toughness goes to zero due to the second ability, it will go to the
    graveyard before damage is assigned and won't deal damage at all.
    [Shadowmoor FAQ 2008/04/21]  If it blocked, the attacker will still be

    each of those card draws with two draws, effectively doubling you number

    that combat. [D'Angelo 2008/05/17]
+ The second ability triggers on any damage, not just combat damage.

Wound Reflection:
+ It checks if life was lost.  If life was also gained this turn, it will
    still trigger.  For example, if 4 life was lost and 6 gained, it will
    see that 4 was lost and act on that. [Shadowmoor FAQ 2008/04/21]
+ It checks at the end of every turn, not just your turns.  But it always
    refers to your opponents, not the player whose turn it is.
    [Shadowmoor FAQ 2008/04/21]
+ It will take effect even if it wasn't in play when the life was lost.  As
    long as it is in play at the end of turn. [Shadowmoor FAQ 2008/04/21]
+ If life is lost during the end-of-turn after this resolves, it won't be
    detected. [Shadowmoor FAQ 2008/04/21]
+ The effect is cumulative.  If more than one is in play, the first one will
    cause extra loss of life.  The second one will see that loss in addition
    to the original loss.  And so on. [Shadowmoor FAQ 2008/04/21]
