Description
"The Girl In the Tower" is an allegorical tale on romance. Its setting is in ancient, Medieval Times, bringing the reader back to a place where knights & fair maidens & castles & kings are part of everyday life. It is filled throughout with drama, surprises, and inflictions of intense pain from self-indulgent antagonists.
This story mixes fantasy (giants, dragons, & fire-swamps) along with a taste of tradition & normal affairs of ancient kingdoms, particularly as related to royalty. Sprinkled all throughout are philosophically challenging moments for the main character (Passionate) and spiritual lessons, leading the reader to take a very deep look into the importance of playing an effective role in the whole process of courtship & falling in love.
While the book focuses largely on struggles from the knight's perspective, the princess & her battles are treated as equally intense & important. The purpose of spending more time telling the knight's side of the tale is largely due to the author's passion for helping men everywhere come face-to-face with the Maker's design for their lives, and to catch glimpses into the beautiful mystery of capturing a woman's heart.
