Bag om Hart's Hope

A dark and powerful fantasy from Orson Scott Card, the bestselling author of Ender's Shadow.Enter the city of Hart's Hope, ruled by gods both powerful and indifferent, riddled with sorcery and revenge.

[But he was not cruel enough to rule.] He let her live after her humiliation; live to bear a daughter; live to return from exile and retake the throne of Hart's Hope.But she, in turn, sent Palicrovol into exile to breed a son who would, in the name of the God, take back the kingdom from its cruel Queen.
