The Never Mind Trilogy

Two sisters. One destined for the crown, one doomed to silence. Princess Astrid and Princess Vega are identical in every way - except one was born near perfect, the other “deficient”. Born mute. By age six, their fates are sealed. Vega will be the next queen. Astrid, the silent princess, will spend the rest of her days rotting away in a facility. It is a time when the planet has been ravaged by global warming. Famine and disease demand drastic measures to preserve resources that are already stretched paper thin. 

Now that her memory has been restored, Astrid knows exactly who she is. She is Princess Astrid of Oceali - no longer the Silent Princess. Her mother died, years ago, helping Astrid escape a life of misery in a facility. Her mother died because of her sister, Princess Vega. Astrid also knows exactly where she is. Not in her remarkable home on the Isle of the Never Mind, but she and her friends are being held captive in her old home, deep within the bowels of the palace. 

Astrid has returned to Oceali with only one thing on her mind: revenge. Her sister, Princess Vega, has taken everything from her, in a desperate pursuit of the crown. Astrid could not care less about the crown, but if it will make her sister miserable, she’d gladly take it from her. But at what cost? What else is Astrid willing to sacrifice to make her sister suffer? Her friends? Her life?
