Author: Kristina Hlaváčková
9,96 €
Černý jezdec brings Elena back to courtly expectations at odds with her desire to fight. The growing threat of war creates a conflict between a princess’s prescribed role and her own abilities.
Černý jezdec is the second book in Kristina Hlaváčková’s Dračí oči fantasy series. After eight years, Princess Elena returns home to royal training, dancing lessons, and her mother’s plans for her future rather than an adventurous life. Peace does not last. Flying lizards and other enemies attack, and war threatens the land. Elena wants to fight alongside the Berbers, black riders with covered faces, although society’s rules deny her that role.

What is Dračí oči – Černý jezdec about?
Back home, Elena must adapt to life as a princess and continue her royal education. Hopes of a quiet period soon fade. Enemies threaten the Kéral peoples, attacks by flying creatures multiply, and the Berber army prepares for battle. Elena refuses to stand aside, yet tradition gives a girl no place in war. She must find her own way to take part. Intrigue, betrayal, and secrets about her destiny develop around her. As conflict intensifies, her choices become more consequential. As a sorceress, she possesses power that could help bring peace, but also presents temptation and danger. The second book expands the world of the first and brings its heroine closer to the role she must play in its future.
