After many cycles uprooted in exile, Nuel learns of his father's death—the indomitable king of Terräfirma. His lost wonderland is now a battlefield of fiery hearts and clashing spades, where the prodigious explorer must navigate risky alliances and ancient prophecies to reach the diamond-studded throne—and there, the elusive truth.
