Prince of the Blood

A hardcover edition of Raymond E. Feist's 'Prince of the Blood', published by Grafton in 1989. This is a later printing and is offered without its dust jacket. The book is in Very Good condition. The captivating tale follows the impetuous twin princes Borric and Erland, sons of Prince Arutha of Krondor. Their carefree youth ends abruptly when Borric is named Royal Heir, bypassing his father. To prepare them for their future roles, Arutha dispatches them as ambassadors to Kesh, the world's most feared nation, where they are to attend the Queen's Seventy-fifth Jubilee Anniversary. Their journey is fraught with peril from the outset, beginning with an assassination attempt on Borric even before leaving Krondor. Despite the clear provocation, Prince Arutha insists the diplomatic mission proceed. However, peace remains elusive for the young princes. An ambush leaves Borric missing and presumed dead, plunging Erland into a spiral of grief as he navigates the treacherous court of Kesh alone. Unbeknownst to all, Borric has survived, a fugitive in a strange land with a price on his head, forced to rely on his wits to find his way back to his brother. On separate, perilous paths, these two men – one a future king, the other a hunted fugitive – embark on a transformative journey towards maturity, honor, and duty. Every decision they make and every step they take carries the potential to sway the fragile peace of the land, as relentless forces craving war rally against them with ever-increasing daring. This thrilling narrative delves deep into political intrigue, family bonds, and the weight of destiny.
