'In lonely exile in a remote peasant village, Reyhnard, third son of the murderous tyrant Basal of Brychmachrye, writes down the story of his past life as prince and king. It is a tale that bustles with all the glittering, fervent life of a feudal court - and the tale of a royal family doomed by the lust for power and by the inescapable burdens power imposes: of a king who has usurped the throne by means of murder and marriage: of the king's mistress, who exploits her beauty and sexuality for dynastic ends; of the narrator's sister - and his beloved; and, above all, of the narrator himself-poet and, eventually, king
A brilliantly realized portrayal of an imaginary kingdom. A Mirror for Princes is aso an impassioned exploration of any world where power is all, where love and trust are inevitably betrayed.'
