The Ringed Castle

From the silken palace of Suleiman the Magnificent to the barbaric court of Ivan the Terrible: Lymond is bound for Russia, where he fights his way to a position second only to the young Tsar himself. It is a world away from his homeland, now sheltering Philippa Somerville, his wife in name only, and the child they rescued in Constantinople.

De la palatul de matase al lui Suleiman Magnificul pana la curtea barbara a lui Ivan cel Groaznic: Lymond se indreapta spre Rusia, unde se indreapta spre o pozitie secunda numai dupa tanarul tar insusi. Este o lume departe de patria sa, acum adapostindu-l pe Philippa Somerville, sotia sa doar cu numele si copilul pe care l-au salvat la Constantinopol.
