Christine E SchulzeChristine E. Schulze has been living in castles, exploring magical worlds, and creating fantastical adventures and romances since she was too young to even write such stories. Her collection of young adult and children's fantasy books, The Amielian Lgacy, is comprised of series and stand-alone books that can all be read separately, but also weave together to create a single, amazing fantasy. One of her main aspirations for The Amielian Legacy is to create fantasy adventures with characters that connect with readers from many different backgrounds. Her current focus is to include racially diverse characters and those with disabilities. The latter is inspired by Schulze working with adults with autism and other developmental disabilities at Trinity Services in Southern Illinois. Schulze draws much of her inspiration from favorite authors like Tolkien and Diana Wynne Jones, favorite games like The Legend of Zelda, and especially from the amazing people God has placed in her life. Some of her exciting ventures include the publication of her award-winning Bloodmaiden, as well as The Gailean Quartet. Her books for younger readers include In the Land of Giants and The Amazing Captain K.
