Megan Whalen Turner - The King of Attolia - Engels


By scheming and theft, the Thief of Eddis has become King of Attolia. 
Eugenides wanted the queen, not the crown, but he finds himself 
trapped in a web of his own making. Attolia's barons seethe with 
resentment, the Mede emperor is returning to the attack, and the king 
is surrounded by the subtle and dangerous intrigue of the Attolian court.

When a naive young guard expresses his contempt for the king in no 
uncertain terms, he is dragged by Eugenides into the center of the 
political maelstrom. Like the king, he cannot escape the 
difficulties he makes for himself. Poor Costis knows he is the victim of 
the king's caprice, but he discovers a reluctant sympathy for Eugenides 
as he watches the newly crowned king struggle against his fate.
