Omschrijving
Italy, 1326. While the brilliant and wily Cesco is schooled in his new duties at the hand of a hard master, Pietro Alaghieri travels to Avignon, current seat of the Papacy, to fight his excommunication. He doesn't know an old foe has been waiting to ruin his life and seize control of Verona itself. Back in Verona, separated from everyone he trusts, Cesco must confront his ambitious cousin, a mysterious young killer, and the Holy Roman Emperor himself. A harrowing series of adventures reveal a secret long hidden, one that threatens Cesco's only chance for true happiness. The third novel in Blixt's acclaimed Star-Cross'd series, Fortune's Fool combines Shakespeare's Italian plays, the poetry of Dante and Petrarch, and the brutal intrigue of Renaissance Italy to create a story of heartbreaking adventure, exploring the capricious whims of lady Fortune, who has her favorites - and her fools.
