Produktbeschreibung

An absorbing trilogy that introduces new characters-and conflicts-from the vast world of Majipoor: "Brilliant." -Chicago Sun-Times

On the planet Majipoor, it is a time of great change. Coronal Lord Confalume is preparing to make his transition to the higher, ceremonial role of Pontifex. It is no secret that the next Coronal will be Prince Prestimion. By law and custom, Confalume's son, Korsibar, cannot be his successor. But Korsibar has been given a prophecy that will plunge the planet into a fearsome conflagration: "You will shake the world!"

Plotting with his twin sister and their ambitious companions, Korsibar intends to seize the throne by force. But the burdens of the crown and scepter exact more of a price than Korsibar is prepared to pay. Especially when Prestimion, his rival, fights back to take his appointed place . . .

"Plotted like a Shakespearian play. . . . With a brand-new cast of characters and engaging conflicts of heart and soul, Silverberg-one of the world's finest stylists and storytellers-breathes fresh life (and quality) into sci-fi's sister genre." -San Antonio Express-News
