Kristina the Girl King

This fatual novel is written in the form of a diary with fictional twists added. when Kristina was born, her father had presumed she was a boy and announced her to be the King when shegrew up. when he came to find that she was a girl, he said that she should be king anyway and have the treatment of a prince till that time. The only problem is that if she was to get married, she would not be able to have first hand at ruling her kingdom. But everyone is putting great pressures on her. Her mother betrayed their country and has been sent to a castle out of country, where she mopes about the death of her husband, and calls on Kristina all the time. Kristina feels that listening to the mournings of her mother a planning for a marrige are useless compared to sword fighting an riding a horse astride rather than side saddeling, so she decideds to ignore everyone and do as she pleases.
