*Go to Tuscolo, and you will die.*

Ambrose, Prince Under the Sky, is haunted by the ominous words of his ancestor. He shuns his rightful throne and remains in the desolate wastelands, a ragged and hidden king, searching for the secret that will lift the curse of a weeping goddess.

Then one day a young princess comes to him, a girl so enchanting, so beautiful, that his life is no longer his own. For her, Ambrose will leave his wandering existence and set out to meet his fate.

*The Fatal Child* is a passionate, powerful story that moves from bloody battlefields to court politics, from bleak heathlands to the eternal darkness of the spirit world.

A breathtaking sequel to *The Cup of the World* and *The Widow and the King.*
