The Glass Cage
eBook
(First Books Sept. 2, 2002)
Kept on a throne in a glass room by her parents in order to preserve her perfect beauty, Princess Isabella knows nothing of the outside world. Waited on hand and foot and taught nothing more than to sit prettily and be admired, she is unprepared for the fate that awaits her. At the age of ten, a troll kidnaps her from her throne and it is several weeks before she manages to escape. Alone in a world where everything and everyone is foreign to her, she must discover what other strengths she has besides her beauty. Her journey home pits her against a hideous beast, rodents, quicksand, blood-sucking slugs, and a series of other torments. But she also makes good friends along the way including the eccentric Grammy, the loner Phinius, and the brave warrior Lyalus. If Isabella finally reaches her home, will she be able to prove to her parents that she has many other strengths besides her beauty and convince them to release her from her glass cage once and for all?
