The White Mists of Power

This was a spectacular find. I loved this novel and found it very hard to put down. There was no way for the reader to know which direction the novel was going to next as there was a new twist around every turn. The characters are very real, and never stray from the form the author has constructed for them. The story line was also one of the most original I have read to date. Yes, this is set in the time of castles and magic, but you will be amazed at how different the story is from others in its genre. I wasn't dissapointed.

Excellent book that I found years ago and have always remembered - simply and elegantly told, with a big huge "ah hah!" moment payoff that's just so much fun that I'm dismayed by a review below that gives it away. The review was written with all good intentions, I know, but trust me:If you intend to read this book, don't read the review below entitled "One of My Favorite Books"!!

This is one of my faves... anyone into fantasy should check it out... has some great plot twists.

With this book, Kurtz become one of my favorite writers. She was able to blend the past and present so well together that the reader wasn't even able to recognize that that was what she was doing. The plot itself was stunning with the idea of a lost prince coming back as a grown man to claim that which is rightfully his.
