I am looking for a weird book I read 10 plus years ago. It was called "The Chrysalid * or some thing. About a man fleeing from pursuers into a cave, aided by a glowing, floating entity, through caves associated with waterfalls and inhabited by (unseen ) monsters that roar or howl ! Eventually makes his way out. I'm pretty sure the title was something like The Chrysalid but not sure. Such a weird book but I'd love to read it again!

I have a copy of "The Skax" which was a good read, about Bigfoots in the Pacific northwest. But I was very interested in any info on a similar-sounding title about a man fleeing potential rape into a cave where he is helped by a floating luminous being. He also aware of other inhabitants, beasts which roared (or more ominously, howled ) and subterranean cataracts. There was a happy ending to a weird story. If I could be informed of the title (the name of the fairy-like helper, but not the Stax! I think I'd die happy!!
