Beschreibung
During the time of Carnival, the boundaries between worlds blur. Anything can happen. Some fortunate souls narrowly escape the relentless fate. On the frosty Carnival night of the year of our Lord 1365, a maiden almost loses her virginity, a monster its heart, a mare her foal, an unworthy monk his freedom, and a young magician his life. Others are not so lucky. When a rare Flemish stallion goes missing that same night, it means great trouble for the poor nobleman Martin of Skála. Will he manage to find a sire for his herd of mares, suitors for his five beautiful daughters, and his own soul, hidden at the bottom of a wine cup? This thrilling historical fresco with elements of magic takes us back to the reign of Charles IV – to a time of knights and brigands, queens and courtesans, men of true faith and worshippers of ancient forest deities, where the sound of church bells does not reach.
