There are nine known realms, a world for each race, including dwarves, gnomes, and elves. In the middle rests Middang3ard. Each world knows the others. Each, except Earth. Humans long ago turned their backs on magic, throwing their stock into science and technology, their governments shielding the people from the reality of what was going on elsewhere. So be it.

Here Fromm offers a complete and systematic exploration of his “humanistic psychoanalysis.”

Elaine Watkins knew there would be challenges loving the great Dr. Xavier Vincent - medical icon, enigmatic genius and broken man - but when she finds herself the focus of the Society, a group sociopaths who manipulate people for pleasure and sport, finding someone she can trust becomes her biggest test.
