Description
Hubert Anvil's life is about to change forever. Born with an angelic voice, he is deemed suitable for a drastic alteration: castration, which would bring him fame and fortune but also sever his connection to the adult world he longs to explore. In a world where Martin Luther never reformed and the Holy Office holds absolute power, Hubert must decide whether to defy their wishes. With his unique voice, he becomes a target for those in authority, forcing him to navigate a treacherous landscape of oppression and rebellion. As Hubert searches for a way out, he uncovers secrets about his world that challenge everything he thought he knew. His journey will take him down a path of discovery and resistance, where the stakes are high and the consequences are deadly.
