Dun Ladys Jess

The character development runs deep. Amazingly detailed development of Jess. Having horses myself, I found her portrayal of horse turned woman realistic and compelling. A must reed for anyone who loves horses and likes fantasy.

Well written book and very suspenseful. The story had a great plot and an unexpected ending. Another book I couldn’t put down.

Wow! I got this book as a freebie on Amazon, attracted to its cover and the description. Within a few pages, I was hooked. The true nature of a horse, even in human form, is so very well written. Add to that the twists of plot and tension throughout, and youve got an all together awesome story. Im now a Durgin fan for life.

Unexpected fun well developed.

A great fantasy. A fun ride. And, if I ever finish all of my other books, Ill be looking for the sequell!

Great stand-alone story with an interesting premise and great ensemble cast. While it is able to be a stand alone novel, it has more books following it (which makes me happy). I thought Durgin did a great job depicting the horse in Jess and her entire time as a human. Im not familiar with horses or animals in general, but this made me love them. The romantic in me did kind of wish for a little more romance though. Nevertheless, great story and a bit darker than folks may expect.

Doranna Durgin is a very good fantasy writer, and her Changespell Saga is very re-readable. Shes the only author I know who has based a story on a horse becoming human, and handles this very tricky and difficult situation deftly without oversimplifying it. Her characters are engaging and her plots intriguing and exciting. I need to reread the rest (its been years) so I can find out what happens next!

To read an action packed, magical, animal focussed story was fantastic. The author certainly knows her horses and as a horse lover, the story rang true. Dont we all wish we understood animals so well. And her humans were very interesting too. I guess this could be a stand alone story, but I certainly will enjoy reading the further adventures of all the characters and alternate universe.

I enjoyed parts of this book, not so much the beginning quarter of it. The worst part was the extremely poor editing. Many letters and words left out. And at one point the girl/horse shakes her man, instead of mane. I may have laughed at that, except the entire book was full of irritating parts like that. Possibly the worst part was the introduction in which the author stated she had opportunity to change the Kindle edition and improve it from the printed copy. I am very happy I did not read the printed version if the Kindle book was better.

Great story I am looking forward to reading more or the story. Unusual and fun to read. A man and his horse are brought to our world by magic and the horse is turned into a women.
