Transformation
Transformation | Carol Berg
10 posts | 11 read | 8 to read
Seyonne is a man waiting to die. He has been a slave for sixteen years and has lost everything of meaning to him: his dignity, the people and homeland he loves, and the Warden's power that enables him to step into a human soul and do battle with demons. But Prince Aleksander, heir to the Derzhi empire, has been possessed by the very demons that Seyonne once fought - demons now allied with the savage Khelid nation. Seyonne must recover his power and cast down the Demon Lords before they destroy both the Prince and his empire.

I'm a slow reader. This is the first book I've ever finished in a week. I just couldn't put it down. I picked it up because Carol Berg is local to my area, and I fell in love with her work. If you like magic, dreams, and the changeability of the heart, you'll enjoy this series. #magic #dream #coloradolocal #fantasy #coloradoauthor

Another fantasy trilogy - read it about 10 years ago but still remember it well. If you like demons this is for you 😈

This is a series that came out in 2000. I find it's often overlooked, unfortunately. While it does hold to alot of the traditional fantasy tropes there is still a REALLY good story here with a bucket load of ALL THE FEELS!

Carol Berg is often compared with Robin Hobb...and while I can see the similarities I still think that she definitely has her own voice.

llwheeler I really enjoyed her Song of the Beast. A standalone fantasy, which I also think are often overlooked. I'll have to give this series a try, I missed them somehow. Thanks for the heads up 🙂 6y
LazyOwl I love it when I hear about less well known fantasy series. Adding to TBR. Thanks for the post. 6y
GrilledCheeseSamurai @llwheeler @LazyOwl she has another series called The Bridge of D'Arnath which is equally as good (it was a tough choice on which to post) the first book is called Son of Avonar. And yes, @llwheeler Song of the beast is 👌. 6y

Very typical fantasy but still a great read. Very much looking forward to reading the second and third books. I have been meaning to read this author for a while and wasn't disappointed. Well paced story, wonderfully built world, great writing. Really enjoyed the cultures and society that she built up in this world.

Aleksander doesn't want to be King of the World but he sure could. He's a brilliant character, with a strong personality and a powerful will.

Transformation is the first book in a trilogy. I've only read this so far, but if the rest of the series is as strong, this shapes up as one of the best fantasy series I've ever read

I can recognize that this novel uses a lot of not-very-well-regarded fantasy tropes ("let's torment our poor main character Seyonne as much as humanly possible" and "let's give our main character Seyonne magical powers greater than anyone ever"), but I enjoyed it anyway, so it's a "pick," I guess! ?

annkuch13 Sometimes it's nice to read some super tropey fantasy! 7y

Got up *extra* early to finish off this book! I was racing through it until this last chunk of pages and now I'm just suddenly not interested for some reason 😧😕 Does this ever happen to anyone else?

Leniverse I've had that happen sometimes, yes. I'm not sure why. A sort of reading overload. But it's not like it happens with every book I race through like that, so I just don't know. 7y
missevievelyn @Leniverse I don't know either! It always seems to take away from otherwise excellent/enjoyable books ☹️ 7y
LindsayReads Yes, and it's so disconcerting! 7y
