When Henry Day is seven years old, he is kidnapped by ageless beings called changelings, who leave another child in Henry's place, a boy who will be his duplicate. Haunted by memories, both boys are driven to search for the keys to whom they once were before they switched places. Unabridged. 5 CDs.
The story starts slow and stays that way. Ultimately I'd call the book boring, very little happens. I don't put many books down halfway through, but if I wasn't waiting for my next book to arrive I certainly would have walked away from this one. This could have been condensed into a short story, not enough happened of interest to be worthy of a full book.
I, like many others, found the characters to be dull and 2 dimensional. I had the audio book version and, as I waited for my next title to be sent to me, listened to it in the car. I was seriously concerned I might fall asleep. The characters are not likable, the story is not interesting and I found the plot to be really shallow.
