Everytime I hear that Jane is writing a new book, I always hope she is returning to write more books about the Athanor. This book is one of my favorite books that I have read multiple times. For anyone who enjoys modern tales of the fantastic this is a must read and if you collect books, addition to your collection. This is a wonderfully imagined book. The gods, kings of legend, heroes of legend, live among us. The figures of myth, nymphs, satyrs, mermaids, selkies...actually exist. A superb read for those adults who grew up in Narnia, in Greek mythology, and who, in some little corner of their hearts, still beleive. This is a story that is well-thought out, even with all the twists and turns and deviousness worthy of Loki. I highly reccomend this. Excellent story. The characters are at the same time fantastic and believable. Certainly one of the best attempts at placing fantasy themes into a modern day recognizable world I have read. Also contains one of the most horrifying and yet compelling torture scenes I have read. Defiantly a "Cant put it Down" read. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Gehört zur ReiheAthanor (1)
Wild, strange, and unpredictable, he is known as the Changer: the ultimate vagabond who slips in and out of myths and cultures, refusing to be pinned down to any one origin just as he refuses to be lcked into any one shape--or name. Yet when a quest for vengeance forces him to shed animal form and seek out King Arthur, the Changer discovers that the darkest of dangers threaten the timeless realm. For Arthur's sworn enemies have risen once more to topple the king and spread chaos among humankind. The Changer himself will be the enemy's unwitting accomplice, unless he somehow stops the dreaded forces and diabolical powers threatening to destroy Arthur's kingdom--and all humanity.

This novel has a sequel titled Legends Walking, which I personally didn’t enjoy as much, partly because it’s full of brutality of the worst kind and partly because, while Changer has many immortal characters solving their problems while living mostly in the stable North America, the sequel features three immortals helping Nigerian locals in their struggle against an oppressive would be dictator.
