Todo lo que busco en un libro de fantasy , George R. R. Martin, autor de Juego de Tronos.


En la bulliciosa ciudad-estado de Castelana, un joven huérfano llamado Kel es arrebatado de su humilde origen para llevarlo a La Colina, donde le espera una vida llena de lujos y peligros. Desde ese momento, Kel se convierte en el sosia del príncipe Conor Aurelian, su doble, para protegerlo de cualquier amenaza. Para ello, vive como su primo, y a pesar del vínculo fraternal que nace entre ellos, la vida de Kel y la de Conor cumplen propósitos opuestos: uno debe morir por su rey, y el otro vivir para su reino.


En Sault, lejos de los muros de palacio, Lin Caster, una médica ashkar, intenta aprender más sobre la antigua magia de su pueblo para salvar a su mejor amiga. Sin embargo, nadie debe saber de más sobre esta fuerza ancestral. Estudiar más allá de la magia baja puede acarrear graves consecuencias, sobre todo para los ashkar; pero Lin no piensa rendirse.


Pese a la separación entre Sault y La Colina, los caminos de Kel, Conor y Lin colisionarán a causa de los urdidos del Rey Trapero, un misterioso criminal que lidera los bajos fondos de Castelana. Entrecruzados por el deber, el amor y el destino, los tres jóvenes descubrirán una insólita conspiración capaz de abocar a su nación a la guerra, y al mundo en el caos.


Acaso el amor prohibido puede derrocar todo un reino?

magic and dark secrets that could change the world forever in the

A POPSUGAR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR

In the vibrant city-state of Castellane, the richest of
nobles and the most debauched of criminals have one thing in common: the
constant search for wealth, power, and the next hedonistic thrill.

Kel is an orphan, stolen from the life he knew to become the
Sword Catcher--the body double of a royal heir, Prince Conor
Aurelian. He and Conor are as close as brothers, but his destiny is to die
for Conor. No other future is possible.Lin Caster is
a physician from a small community whose members still possess magical
abilities. But despite her skills, she cannot heal her best friend without
access to forbidden knowledge.

After a
failed assassination attempt brings Lin and Kel together, they are
drawn into the web of the mysterious Ragpicker King, the ruler of
Castellane's criminal underworld. But as long-kept secrets begin to
unravel and forbidden attractions arise, they must ask themselves: Is
knowledge worth the price of betrayal? And will their discoveries plunge
their nation into war--and the world into chaos?
