Unknown Beastmaster – not the series, but a single book, and this one has a young woman (perhaps a teen) as the main character. She somehow ends up in a gorgeous forest (definitely a fantasy book) where she can communicate with the ‘beasts’ and becomes the ‘master’ although the relationships are more friendly. I read this in the 70’s but have no idea when it was published. The cover had a picture of the young girl surrounded by vines and lush vegetation and of course animals. I always remembered the title as Beastmaster but it comes up in no searches, anywhere. Can anyone help? Thanks!
Perhaps “The Forgotten Beasts of Eld” by Patricia McKillip?
Wow, I think that’s it! The images I found in a google search definitely look like the cover I remember. Thanks so much!
Please confirm that this is the title so we can mark it solved.
Oh sorry, yes, this is it! Is there a separate place to confirm? If so, I’ll do that too. Thanks again!
