Récits du Vieux Royaume
Set in a richly detailed fantasy world inspired by Renaissance Italy, the novel follows the cunning and resourceful Benvenuto Gesufal, a master assassin and spy in the service of the powerful city-state of Ciudalia. After a perilous mission to ensure his city's victory in a critical war, Benvenuto finds himself embroiled in a web of political intrigue, betrayal, and murder. As he navigates the dangerous corridors of power, he must use all his skills to outwit his enemies, fulfill his duties, and ultimately, to "win the war" both for his city and for his own survival, all while grappling with the moral complexities of his actions and the consequences they bring.
