Chrysanthe

Christine, the princess and heir to the real world of Chrysanthe, is kidnapped as a small child by a powerful magician and exiled in a Made World that is a version of our present reality. In exile, supervised by her strict "uncle"(actually a wizard in disguise), she undergoes bogus memory recovery therapy, through which she is forced to remember childhood rape and abuse by her parents and others. She is terribly stunted emotionally by this terrifying plot, but at seventeen discovers it is all a lie. Christine escapes with a rescuer, Sir Quentin, a knight from Chrysanthe, in a thrilling chase across realities. Once home, the magical standoff caused by her exile is broken, and a war begins, in spite of the best efforts of her father, the king, and his wizard, Melogian. And that war, which takes up nearly the last third of the work, is a marvel of magical invention and terror, a battle between good and evil forces that resounds with echoes of the great battles of fantasy literature. At the publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management software (DRM) applied.

  • "Cristine, the princess and heir to the enchanted world of Chrysanth has been kidnapped as a small child and exiled to a world very much like our own. She is forced through bogus psychotherapy to recall unspeakable abuse at the hands of her family. At the age of seventeen, emotionally scarred by these false memories, she is rescued by Sir Quentin from her imprisonment. But reaching her true home brings Christine no solace, as her arrival spurs the enemies of the realm to desperate measures which culminate in a war filled with monsters, heroes, magicians and epic confrontations."
