Navola

Więcej o książce

From the New York Times best-selling author of Wind-Up Girl and The Water Knife comes a sweeping literary fantasy about a young heir navigating rebellion as he ascends to power. In Navola, a city-state ruled by influential families, business equates to power. The di Regulai family, wealthy merchant bankers, have long manipulated politics, claiming neutrality while their wealth topples kingdoms. Davico di Regulai is poised to inherit this legacy, learning to discern trust and deception in a world where appearances can be misleading. However, beneath the city's opulence lies a darker reality, symbolized by a fossilized dragon eye, a relic of immense power that seems to beckon Davico toward action. As tensions escalate, he faces trials that will test his resolve. His destiny intertwines with that of his adopted sister, Celia di Balcosi, whose family fell victim to Navola’s treacherous politics. With echoes of Renaissance Italy, The Godfather, and Game of Thrones, this tale offers a rich tapestry of world-building and a captivating exploration of ambition and survival.
