   Changeling by Phillipa Gregory

   Reviewed by Alexandra Lopez

  Luca Vero is locked up for speaking heresy, and chased out of his religious order. Soon a secret sect,The Order of the Dragon, commissioned by Pope Nicholas V, recruits him. Luca's job is to discover and destroy the evil that is occurring across Europe. Along his journey, he is sent to investigate a cursed nunnery. This is were he meets Isodle, that was sent there because she did not want to marry right away and she cannot inherit her father's estate.Since she arrived to the Nunnery, they blame her for the weird things happening to the nuns; nuns sleep walking, and seeing weird visions. Will Luca be able to prove Isolde is innocent? Or will he only prove that she might be a real witch?

   I loved Changeling, but not so much the characters. For example, Luca is this smart person, that uses math solve problems, but he rarely used them. Which is what gotten him in trouble to begin with. And he doesn't do anything, he is a very bland character. However this does leave room for development in the later books, which I pray there will be. It had a steady pace, but in the beginning it was a bit slow, but once we met Isolde, things took off.
