     I'm on changeline now and so far this series is absalute tripe. The writer grates and it's nothing but glorified fan fiction (the bad kind.)

    Has anyone else read these books? What do you think?

    I've read Witchling and Changeling, have Dragon Wytch on my TBR and I've mooched a copy of Darkling. They are probably one of my least favourite series that I have continued on with. I think that if I hadn't been able to get Changeling from the library, I probably wouldn't have bothered to try to get a copy from elsewhere, but I liked it better than the first one.Have you read her Chintz 'n China series? I much preferred that series, and it's very different: they're more mysteries with a paranormal element, but that may not appeal to you.

     I haven't read anything else by her yet and with a tbr mountain growning bigger by the day I'm reluctant to add anything else by her to it atm. I've started to find changeline a little better, but still really struggling through it. It's not coherent and she deviates to much from the main path for me, plus her endless description's of what the charactors are wearing and irrelevant conversations makes me just want to throw the book accross the room. Where was the editor? I like the general premise though, which is why I've held out this lone. I'm not even half way through yet but It's not a big book so I'll chug on and then give this series a break and read something else. I've got the next 4 books in the series sitting on my bookshelf right now, but they'll have to wait, there's only so much I can take lol. x

     My review of Changeling:

    Galenorn needs to concentrate more on the story rather than irrelevant conversations and what her charactors are or are not wearing. Yawn to the first and yawn to this book. I'm not even through the first hundred pages and I'm already wishing I never started the blinking thing!

    I've finally finished this book, after what seems like decades of trite.

    These books for me are so hard to get into, not only are there way too many charactors and races to keep track of, but her charactors lack authenticity and the dialoug she creats is disjointed and terrible to follow. Her editor needs to go back to editing school, she says silly things throughout this book that don't make sense and more often that not mix's up old sayings, which from what I can gather is unintentional rather than quirky and just leaves the author looking quite dumb.

    Despite the overwhelming desire to throw this series away, there is some small part of my that is keen to read on and find out what happens next ... not just yet though.
