Sobre aquest llibre
Kushiel’s Chosen by Jacqueline Carey is a sweeping fantasy of romance, luxuriance and intrigue – perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Jennifer L. Armentrout.
'Rich, intricate worldbuilding meets swoonworthy romance. . . Phédre and Joscelin’s story is the beating heart of every romantasy to follow' Olivie Blake
Temptress. Traitor. Tormentor.
Phèdre was trained as a spy, courtesan and strategist under her tutor’s watchful eye. He saw she’d been touched by the god Kushiel’s dart, chosen to experience pain and pleasure as one. Above all, he taught Phèdre to observe and analyse – skills that may yet save her life.
Once before, Phèdre sacrificed everything to save her country, but the gods still cast a shadow over her land. Although their young queen is beloved by her people, traitors remain. Those who seek the throne aren’t done with schemes for power and revenge. To do her duty, Phèdre must again leave her homeland – only to uncover an earth-shattering plot. One masterminded by the one person she can’t deny. . .
‘Kushiel’s Chosen is elegant, intricate, sensual, and captivating’ Robert Jordan, author of The Wheel of Time
‘Ms Carey’s alternate Renaissance period is perfection’ Romantic Times
‘A great love story, intense spirituality, high eroticism, and lots of adventure, intrigue and swordplay’ Booklist starred review
