|
Серия: "Kuninganna varas" Vana-Kreekast inspireeritud fantaasiamaailmas püüavad kolm väikeriiki vastu seista suurele Mede impeeriumile. Selleks oleks aga hädavajalik tugevate liidrite olemasolu neis väikeriikides. Ühe riigi etteotsa on jõudnud varas Eugenides, abielludes Attolia ilusa, kuid armutu kuninganna Irene’iga. Tahtmatult saadud kuningaroll ei meeldi eiEugenidesele ega ta värsketele alamatele, kes ta toidu sisse liiva ja voodisse madusid poetavad, ja tal seisab ees raske eesmärk – saada kuningaks ka tegelikult, mitte ainult vormiliselt. Megan Whalen Turneri lummavad ja auhindu võitnud „Kuninganna Varga“ romaanid elustavad eeposte maailmaja tutvustavad üht karismaatilist ja parandamatut tegelast – varas Eugenidest ehk Geni. „Kuninganna Varga“ romaanid on täis poliitilisi mahhinatsioone ja intriige, võidetud ja kaotatud lahinguid, ohtlikke reise, jumalikke sekkumisi, võimu, kirge, kättemaksu ja reetmist. „Kuninganna Varga“ romaane hindavad kirjanikud, kriitikud ja lugejad, need on saanud paljusid auhindu, nende hulgas Los Angeles Times Book Prize, Newbery Honor, Mythopoeic Fantasy Award.
