Revue de presse

"...deeply satisfying... . Pevel lets each of his fascinating characters shine in turn while weaving them together in a rich plot with just the right mix of inevitability and surprise. The storytelling is wonderful... fans of [The Cardinal’s Blades] will enjoy this installment..."
-Publishers Weekly

"Along with the ability to conjure up a sensory portrait of an unwashed era, Pevel has a strong feel for character, no matter where the members of his large and expanding cast may lie along the moral spectrum."
-Locus

"History and alternate history buffs, including fans of Naomi Novik’s "Temeraire" series, should flock to this stylish, swashbuckling fantasy."
-Library Journal

Présentation de l'éditeur

Paris, 1633: Cardinal Richelieu is on his guard. France is under threat, and a secret society is conspiring against him from the heart of the greatest courts in Europe. To counter the threat, Richelieu has put his most trusted men into play: the Cardinal's Blades, led by Captain la Fargue. When la Fargue hears from "La Donna," a beautiful spy claiming to have valuable information, he has to listen. She says the enemy is an exceptionally dangerous adversary: the Alchemist in the shadows.
