DEDICATION

This book is dedicated to Mathias on his birthday.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Happy birthday to Matthias, a brother, friend, comrade, and more, the person that treated me like I was king of the world when I was at my lowest, who saw me through my darkest days and kept his head high when I couldn't keep mine up. The person who made all of you aware of this book and would probably make this a best seller.

To Enenu Enenu03 thank you for being inspired by Eliza and I hope Tamari is as much inspiration to you also.

To all the people that supported me during the process of writing this; my friends and family, I say thank you.

To my favorite aunt in the world, Aunty Deborah, thank you for reading all my drafts and for your criticism and help.

To Donald DonaldUzoka, for an amazing book cover. Donald is dead, people die. But our memories of them live on, and Donald I pray, is in a better place, so, in a way, there are pieces of Donald still living, in every one of us he left behind, in his books, and our memories.

And to all the princesses and princes out there, this is for you. Thank you all so very much.
