July 07, 2008: Set, as so many of Thompson's books were, in England, this paranormal was her second release for Dorchester. The firt as Gothic shapeshifter. This was old Norse lore. Lady Rebecca is fleeing her evil father, when her coach over turns. She nearly downs but is recued by the waterlord - Count Klaus Lindegran. It is half-human, half Fossegrim. He is required to take a make to keep his realm secure. He loves Rebecca but must return to his people who depend upon him for their very survival. Another beautifuly written tale by a talent that was taken from us too soon.

December 13, 2006: I really loved Thompson The Waterlord. A hero to die for. Sigh. She gives you old style, involving historicals with a new voice, that make me sad to put it down I wanted to stay in the magical world she created.
