Francia história - Robert Merle

7.3 €

A szenvedélyes és merész Pierre de Siorac lovag lépten-nyomon veszedelmes vagy gáláns kalandokba keveredik, mindig ott van, ahol „libben a szoknya", és ahol a korabeli történelmet alakítják. Márpedig a történelem viharosan alakul Siorac kapitány korában, hiszen a XVI. század második, illetve a XVII. század első fele Franciaország egyik legmozgalmasabb időszaka: ez a vallásháborúk évszázada, az utolsó Valois-k és az első Bourbonok, Medici Mária, Ausztriai Anna, XIII. Lajos és Richelieu kora. Merle nagy sikerű regényciklusának első könyve ebbe a világba varázsol bennünket, hogy aztán még tizenkét köteten keresztül éljünk az írói fantáziával káprázatosan föltámasztott középkori Franciaországban.
