Wade of Aquitaine: Book One

The science fantasy WADE OF AQUITAINE Series tells the story of a young man and a young woman separated by 1,200 years, each mastering and turning to advantage the rarest of conditions and abilities.

Wade Linwood is a synesthete, cursed, as he sees it, by a crossed set of sensory perceptions from a source he cannot fathom. To him, it begins with letters on a page bearing colors and designs that ordinary people cannot see. Even more disturbing, he can sometimes smell textures, and see startling flashes of what he dubs "objectoids" spinning before his eyes. The condition has been described as "being on LSD without the drugs." Anything can happen.

Kreindia of Byzantium, who lives in the Ninth Century, struggles with a form of synesthesia herself. Risen to nobility and now condemned as a witch, she can taste shapes, and live through visions.

Their combined abilities act to summon Wade to her time via astral projection as civilization itself is about to fall...
