Description

An exciting historical fantasy YA by award-winning New Zealand author Sherryl Jordan. ¿Words hold a terrible power. They can break a heart, or give it a reason to live. They can grant freedom ¿ or begin a war.¿ In a world where it is a crime to speak against injustice, a jester dares to perform a play that enrages a powerful tyrant prince. The jester¿s daughter, Giovanna, must journey into the heart of danger to turn back the terrible consequences unleashed by her father¿s words ¿ and becomes entangled in a treacherous plot to overthrow the prince. She alone holds a secret which, if made public, will end the prince¿s reign and liberate his oppressed people. But when to openly denounce him brings certain death, will Giovanna have the courage to speak out?

Reviews

A new YA novel from award-winning New Zealand author Sherryl Jordan, most well-known for The Juniper Game, The Raging Quiet and Winter of Fire.
“Sherryl Jordan’s welcome return to teenage fiction has it all: romance, mystery and extreme danger as two unlikely young lovers unite to challenge princely corruption and tyranny. This sweeping tale set in the colourful but cruel walled cities of Renaissance Italy is simply irresistible. A renowned storyteller at her very best.” Tessa Duder
“A heart-racing and romantic adventure, proving yet again why master storyteller, Sherryl Jordan, is an enduring force in young adult literature.” Rachael Craw, author of the Spark trilogy
