Unfortunately, I can’t say that I was overly impressed with Changeling.
Having read and enjoyed most of Philippa Gregory’s novels in The Cousins’ War and The Tudor Court series, I had high expectations for this book. Outside in the yard they are building a pyre to burn her for witchcraft.įorced to face the greatest fears of the medieval world-dark magic, werewolves, madness-Luca and Isolde embark on a search for truth, their own destinies, and even love as they take the unknown ways to the real historical figure who defends the boundaries of Christendom and holds the secrets of the Order of Darkness. As the nuns in her care are driven mad by strange visions, walking in their sleep, and showing bleeding wounds, Luca is sent to investigate and all the evidence points to Isolde’s criminal guilt. Seventeen-year-old Isolde, a Lady Abbess, is trapped in a nunnery to prevent her claiming her rich inheritance. Commanded by sealed orders, Luca is sent to map the fears of Christendom, and to travel to the very frontier of good and evil.
The year is 1453 and all signs point to it being the end of the world.Īccused of heresy and expelled from his monastery, handsome seventeen-year-old Luca Vero is recruited by a mysterious stranger to record the end of times across Europe.
