A Prince Without a Crown

About this book

Within a palace where brothers consume one another's ambitions, a prince without a crown discovers that the greatest threat may not be the rival who wants his throne. It may be the person who knows the truth he has hidden. Youssef Soliman combines epic fantasy, political maneuvering, and suspense in a court shaped by inheritance, secrecy, and unstable allegiance. Every claim to power carries a private price, and every alliance can turn intimate knowledge into a weapon. The protagonist must decide whether legitimacy comes from blood, possession, or conduct. The novel makes the struggle for a kingdom inseparable from the struggle to own one's identity.
