Abandoned and alone, the fosterling Ilario grows up as the King's Freak, surrounded by all the pomp, intrigue, and danger of the Iberian court. Fleeing a failed treacherous attack, Ilario crosses the sea to Carthage, where the mysterious Penitence shrouds the sky in darkness. There, a strange and awful destiny awaits the would-be painter, one that spans continents and kingdoms.

Filled with intrigue, sex, and mystery,Ilario: The Lion's Eyeis a stunning tale of secret histories and self-discovery. The adventure continues in Book Two:The Stone Golem.

winderfully convincing...the intricate plots allow plenty of room for Gentles subtle, ironic commentary on politics and gender.[an] impressive first in a new series from British author Gentle...
