Kirkby's changeling, June 26, 2000
I have just realized that "Kirkby's changeling" is actually "Stranger at Wildings". Why it was published under two different names I don't know. Chantal, the lead character is "Stranger at Wildings" is the child of John Kirkby, and was switched at birth, and is thus referred to several times in "Stranger" as "Kirkby's changeling".

Kirkby's Changeling, June 26, 2000
By A Customer
I was seaching for the only Madeline Brent book I hadn't read when I discovered I had read it. KIRKBY'S CHANGELING is the English title for STRANGER AT WILDINGS. STRANGER AT WILDINGS is about an unhappy English girl who's life is changed when she runs away and joins a circus. While there she works as a trapeze artist and meets a mysterious man named Martin who has amnesia. Five years after she joins the circus she finds out she's not who she thought she was and goes to live with some strange English relatives. This book is similar to Brent's other books in that a girl grows up in an unusual place where she learns an unusual talent, meets a strange man, goes back to England, finds out about her mysterious past, meets the man again, and uses her unusual talent to save the day.

I want to read this book!, December 20, 1999
I have been reading and loving Madeleine Brent's books for years. I adore the heroines, the settings, the history, the twists and turns of the stories, the writing. While I love them all, my favorites are Moonraker's Bride and Merlin's Keep. The only Madeleine Brent book I have not read is Kirkby's Changeling. I've been searching on line, bookstores, auctions, Amazon's out-of-print search, etc. over the years, but I have not been able to find a copy of this book. If anyone knows where I can get a copy of Kirkby's Changeling, I would be eternally grateful! If you know, you may contact me at my email address: youngkw@gte.net.
