An absorbing novel of fourteenth century France - its magnificence, its dissipation. Louis X dies of poison leaving his lovely wife pregnant, his country in turmoil. Philippe of Poitiers, his brother, surrounded by dangers, must use any means to save his country from anarchy. Civil war, witchcraft, trickery, force of arms, the lechery of Queen Clemence, the murder of a royal child - all these marked his rapid ascent to the throne. This is the fourth novel in Maurice Druon's series The Accursed Kings.
