Rating: Summary: Completely compelling Review: A magnificient book for any of the Fantasy loving book go-ers. Rusch has an awsome way of writing. It pulls you into the story and builds the world around you. One of the best books I have ever read.
Rating: Summary: One of the better fantasy series Review: Although I'm relatively new to the fantasy genre, I know a good fantasy story when I see one -- and this is one of them. Ms. Rusch knows how to draw you in to a story and make you feel, see, and hear what the characters experience. This story had many surprising twists to it -- some I didn't really care for, but that was only because I wanted something else to happen. I loved the strength that the characters found within themselves when they needed it; and with all of the devious scheming going on in this book, they needed it alot! A very good read!
Rating: Summary: This Book is magnificent Review: I found The Fey: The Changeling exciting and intrigueing. I fell in love with the major Fey character Rugar and was very disappointed when he was killed out of the story by one of his own. I feel that Rugar should have remained in the series to see what relationship would have developed between his grand-daughter Arianna since he did not have much of one with Gift, his grandson. I saw strength and vulnerability with Rugar and found him magnificent as the Black prince that loved his daughter and his people strongly.I secretly want the Fey to win this battle and I am currently reading the first book of the Fey, because I did not know this series was available until now. So my favorite character of the first two books was Rugar. Jewel was very close to her father and admired him, I was kind of disappointed that she felt that to bridge the gap between the two peoples, she had to intermarry into the enemy lines. I was equally disappointed that she was killed off so horribly. Nevertheless, I am hooked on this series and anticipate the series of the Black Queen.

Rating: Summary: Best fantasy i've read since Jordan Review: I love that someone has finnally written something new and different in fantasy. The combo of magic and Judeo-Christian myth really works. Its great that no character is safe and that time progresses into the future rapidly in this series. Can't recommend it enough and I read them all. Don't stop with book five Katherine! ...or at least come back to this universe with a new series???
Rating: Summary: Plot twists Review: I think it is the goal of any series writer to make the second, third, and fourth books more interesting than the first--not less. I tried to do that in this, and the subsequent books.
Rating: Summary: Magic! Review: If you think the first book is great, than I assure you that this one is magic. What a plot. The characters are much more exciting than in book one.Espescially the Fey becomes a love-hate affair for me. This is reading on the edge of your chair. Great compliments for a fantastic writer.
Rating: Summary: Stunning Writing and Plot Twists Review: Most highly recommended. Rusch's writing in _The Fey_ series has been gripping from the beginning, but she surpasses herself in _The Changeling._ The principal twist in the plot is both dramatically surprising and devastatingly correct as an outcome of preceding events--a difficult pair of qualities to yoke. The result is a tour de force, a story of singular power springing from a brutally believable setting.
Rating: Summary: The Fey: The Changeling is great Review: Setting up a whole new image in the Fey Saga, Book Two was as good as the first. With the twists and turns it is very dramatic and is hard to forget. To understand and follow the actions in this book, you need not to read the First but it is highly recommend. Check out the comments about the First Fey book and you will want it. The Third book is on it's way out and now would be the time to buy all three. Don't miss the Fourth and Fith ones coming out in 1998 and 99. I have just been informed by the author herself that there are even more twists and turns in the books that follow
Rating: Summary: The Fey series shows maturity, the second book is great Review: With a slow start to set up the "Fey Universe", the second book
shows considerable strength of character, building on the first book. There are two plot twists that caught me
by surprise. and I normally see a plot twist 50 pages
in advance.
buy the first and second together! The third, when
it comes out, should be great
