Changespell Legacy

Dun Lady's Jess--all horse, all woman, all heart…and the only one left who can save her disintegrating world from magic gone awry.Arlen of Anfeald is dead--or so his friends believe, for Camolen's Council of Wizards has been cut down in a treacherous ambush of twisted magic…and the only surviving witness is a palomino stallion named Ramble.Convinced that the twisted magic is a threat to all of Camolen, Carey--Anfeald's Head Courier--plans to question the palomino, using the now-forbidden spell that can change a horse into a human. This is the same spell that once turned Dun Lady's Jess from horse to human as it took her from one world to another--from Camolen to the American Midwest.But once Cary, Jess, and the palomino leave Camolen, racing to obtain the crucial information that can save their world, the damaging magic spreads, blossoming to engulf the unwary and corrupting even the simplest of spells.Even the spell that can take them home….Other books in this series: Barrenlands, Dun Lady's Jess, Changespell &quote;…A splendid example of how speculative fiction can let us deal with difficult topics at a safe remove. It's not preachy, it's not heavy-handed, it's just a wonderful picture of people screwing things up and then trying to unscrew them…. Most highly recommended.&quote; --Hypatia's Hoard Praise for Changespell: &quote;Durgin tells this deeply insightful and touching tale with a deft clarity. Her eye for detail will delight and astonish you…&quote; --Hypatia's Hoard Praise for Dun Lady's Jess: &quote;Durgin has created a character who is utterly believable as both horse and horse-in-human-body… She cannot be, any longer, just another mare…she cannot be, ever, just another woman….&quote; --Excerpt from Elizabeth Moon's forward &quote;A thrill ride with a fantasy twist, neatly done by a knowledgeable author — short, sweet, and paced at a gallop, Dun Lady's Jess can't help but to win you over.&quote; --Janny Wurts &quote;Horses, heroics, and magic--a great combination! A spirited and daring novel.&quote; --Kristen Britain, The Green Rider &quote;Jess is a tale of wonderfully diverse and riveting characters embroiled in extraordinary events, told with a deftness and care few authors can achieve.&quote; --Diana Pharoah Francis, Path of Blood &quote;Dun Lady's Jess is an adventure story with heart. It's a unique idea, imaginatively explored. The characters are charming, and humanly flawed…. Doranna Durgin offers the reader an unusual viewpoint of impressive versimilitude.&quote; --Vonda McIntyre, Nebula and Hugo Award-winning author
