Deerskin
by Robin McKinley
'How like her mother she is!' 'She is the perfect image of her mother!'
She found herself trembling, and her father's hand weighed on her more
and more till she thought she would go mad, and there before all the people
staring at her, try to gnaw her hand off at the wrist, like an animal
in a trap...A princess trapped in a terrifying nightmare. A king beloved
by his people -- and feared by his own daughter.
