Prologue

Its the 1700s, and Magnus Bane is the prince of France - and it's not as desirable as one might think. As he just turned 19, his father is putting more and more responsibilities upon his shoulders. His life consists of writing things, signing papers, and spending time with his tutor, Catarina. But when he meets someone, his life will change - and he's not sure if it's for the better or the worse.
