About this ebook
Surprising, shocking, and powerfully written, New York Times bestselling author Kristine Kathryn Rusch’s The Changeling continues the thrilling saga of the quest for power fought over generations.
The hard-won peace on Blue Isle rests on an uneasy truce. But a stunning series of betrayals shatter not only that truce, but also any hope for the peaceful coexistence of the warrior Fey and the people of Blue Isle. In a pulse-pounding tour de force, where it becomes impossible to tell hero from villain, Kristine Kathryn Rusch’s brilliant storytelling questions not only the balance of power, but the very nature of power itself.
From a surprising opening salvo to a twist so powerful the rest of the series hinges on that one moment, this stunning masterpiece of shocking betrayal and heartbreaking loss furthers Rusch’s mastery as the greatest storyteller of our time.
“A very good, very large fantasy...nicely done and with a particularly satisfying and unexpected resolution.”
—Science Fiction Chronicle on The Sacrifice
“Rusch’s greatest strength...is her ability to close down a story and leave the reader feeling that the author could not possibly have wrung any more satisfaction out of the piece.”
—The Kansas City Star
“Kristine Kathryn Rusch integrates the fantastic elements so rigorously into her story that it is often hard to remember she is not merely recording the here and now.”
—Science Fiction Weekly
“Whether [Rusch] writes high fantasy, horror, sf, or contemporary fantasy, I’ve always been fascinated by her ability to tell a story with that enviable gift of invisible prose. She’s one of those very few writers whose style takes me right into the story—the words and pages disappear as the characters and their story swallows me whole.... Rusch has style.”
—Charles de Lint
