Críticas
"This is rich and finely wrought writing, taking readers on a genuine journey of imagination" (Books for Keeps)
"This has one of the most compelling openings I've read . . . gripping yet dreamlike, frustrating yet marvellously suggestive" (Amanda Craig The Times)
"A true page-turner . . . the use of evocative language in setting powerful interplay of suspense, intrigue and action make for a fantastically readable sequel to The Cup of the World" (writeaway.org.uk)
"Tremendous pace . . . beautifully written" (Irish Times)
"This is a novel of epic proportions, in which a richly multi-coloured medieval setting is the background for a narrative of vibrant characters and passionate political debate" (Robert Dunbar TES)
Reseña del editor
This stunning book opens twelve years after the end of The Cup of the World and tells the story of Ambrose, son of Phaedra and last in the king's line, who is living exiled with his mother in the dilapidated manor of Tarceny. Ambrose's life is threatened by the hooded priest of the Undercraft, an ancestral spirit of pure evil who must end Ambrose's life in order to survive himself. And even when Ambrose is hidden within the house of the Widow of Develin, a hallowed place of learning and haven of education, the priest and his minions slowly and subtly infiltrate within, subverting the minds of those most educated and powerful and leaving Ambrose in mortal danger. This book is about the meaning of kingship, the relationship between father and son, mother and son, the importance of courage and knowledge, innocence and experience. It is a huge and marvellous read - challenging and uplifting.
