About This Book
But from Tom, there now came words, spoken as if the entire forest were speaking, "I am now your Drachma Heed well these words, Master Gilsen. Your life and your work have been a blessed gift to these, my people. They shall be given the power to protect you. Accept the help, then of Hermes and Alex but also of Marilyn. You shall need the assistance of all " In The Healer's Defense, the quiet world of fifteenth century Shepperton is suddenly turned on its side as three threats from outside suddenly appear. As Craycroft and Kerlin determine the nature of the threats, Robert Gilsen and his pregnant bride, Judy, get sent into the interior of the island for protection. And Tom, grandson of Drachma, is dispatched toward the winds of time for help. So now, we have a new set of characters to do battle with the likes of Antoine LeGace, Emile Patronis, and the nefarious Count Gregorio. And they include the likes of Diego Monteverde, the seafaring prince; Alexandra, the six-year-old great-granddaughter of Cartho; and the mysterious Chauncey. And who is it, but Marilyn Gilsen, Robert's former spouse from the twentieth century who now comes across the chasm of time to aid their cause. And now can Tom, as the new Drachma, properly set up his defense of the realm so precious to his grandfather?
