Description

The Prince of Ombria is dying, and his sinister great-aunt is plotting to seize power. As the Black Pearl's reign looms over the land, a young boy seems an unlikely candidate to stop her. Yet, in the city's shadows, a mysterious sorceress weaves new spells, watched by a girl crafted from wax. In this dark fantasy tale, Patricia A. McKillip crafts a world of intrigue and danger. The lines between life and death are blurred, and the fate of Ombria hangs in the balance. A gripping story of power, magic, and the struggle for survival unfolds beneath the city's streets, where the boundaries between reality and the unknown are constantly tested.
