Princův štít - Kroniky Castellane 1 – Clareová Cassandra (2024)

A stolen boy, a spoiled prince, and an overlooked girl suddenly find themselves caught in a whirlwind of events that change all the rules... thus begins the Chronicles of Castellane, a new epic series from the bestselling author of the Shadowhunters universe. In the bustling city-state of Castellane, the richest nobles and the most debauched criminals have one thing in common: a relentless pursuit of wealth, power, and pleasures. Kel was taken from the orphanage as a child to become the double of the heir to the royal throne, Prince Conor Aurelian. He and Conor are as close as brothers, but Kel - as a living shield - knows that he is fated to die in place of the prince. Healer Lin Caster belongs to the Ashkars, a closed community that still retains magical abilities. After a failed assassination attempt brings Lin and Kel together, they are both drawn into the web of intrigues of the mysterious King of Rags, the ruler of the local underworld. Once they enter his world of dark shadows, they uncover a conspiracy of corruption that reaches from the deepest sewers of Castellane to the highest towers of the palaces. As they begin to unravel long-guarded secrets, both Kel and Lin must ask themselves: is knowledge worth the price of betrayal? Can forbidden love tear a kingdom apart? Will their discoveries plunge the nation into war...
