Ken Altabef's passion for his characters and the world he has created is palpable throughout the text.

The Review
"Lady Changeling" by Ken Altabef was a twisty rollercoaster of a book set in 1700’s England. This whimsical story had all the great makings of a fantasy including faeries, pirates, alchemy, and even some romance. "Lady Changeling" follows the story of Theodora Grayson and her family, husband Eric Grayson, and children James and Nora. They all have secrets they harbor that if came to light could potentially change life as they know it. Just when you think you have it all figured out author, Ken Altabef throws a wrench in the cog and throws you for a loop. This was a fun read and would recommend to any adults who are in need of a good fantasy read.
