Opis

New swashbuckling novel-series upon underground secrets and dark mystery places of 17the Grand Siecle, written in legacy of Dumas. Adventurer Sardan, related to an Hospitalier Grandmaster, and his adept, the eleven year old nobleman Gentils, are forced to flee to Paris in the year 1672 where they get persued by the henchman of the king and other ruthless enemys, have to hide in catacombs, beggar cours de miracles, prostitute-convents, tripots (i.e. gambling parlors)) and - last not least - inside of the Hospitalier-dominated chateau temple. All those places are secretly ruled by an all-mighty Parisean beggar king, the Grand Coesre, who gets help by his advisors, the socalled archisuppots, and a few beautiful, unmarried ladys who nurse their own children, supply drugs to the needys, manage Grand Coesre's heritage and distribute ten mystic medaillons to all of his natural children, among them Sardan, Gentils and - the ruling king Louis XIV himself.
