Melina Marchetta - Froi del Exilio

Crónicas de Lumatere

02. Froi del Exilio (Froi of the Exiles)

Synopsis:

Blood sings to blood, Froi . . .
Those born last will make the first . . .
For Charyn will be barren no more.
 

Three years after the curse on Lumatere was lifted, Froi has found his home... Or so he believes...
Fiercely loyal to the Queen and Finnikin, Froi has been trained roughly and lovingly by the Guard sworn to protect the royal family, and has learned to control his quick temper. But when he is sent on a secretive mission to the kingdom of Charyn, nothing could have prepared him for what he finds. Here he encounters a damaged people who are not who they seem, and must unravel both the dark bonds of kinship and the mysteries of a half-mad Princess.
And in this barren and mysterious place, he will discover that there is a song sleeping in his blood, and though Froi would rather not, the time has come to listen.
Gripping and intense, complex and richly imagined, Froi of the Exiles is a dazzling sequel to Finnikin of the Rock, from the internationally best-selling and multi-award-winning author of Looking for AlibrandiSaving FrancescaOn the Jellicoe Road and The Piper's Son.
 

Sinopsis:

Tres años después de que cayese la maldición sobre Lumatere, Froi ha encontrado un nuevo hogar, o al menos, eso cree. Ferozmente leal a Finnikin y a la reina, Froi se ha entrenado para formar parte de la Guardia de la casa real, ha jurado proteger al reino y ha aprendido a controlar su temperamento. Pero cuando le mandan en misión secreta al reino de Charyn, no está preparado para lo que se encontrará allí. El pueblo está sufriendo, y parece que existen oscuros lazos de parentesco con la princesa enloquecida, que deberá desenmascarar. En este desolado ambiente Froi descubrirá que existe una canción que apacigua la sangre, y aunque le cueste aceptarlo, entenderá que ha llegado el momento de calmarse y escuchar.
