About this book
As a boy, Caladrius hid in a fireplace and watched his family killed in a massacre carried out by the ruler of Berylon, the Basilisk. He grew up on a distant island among bards, and he has returned to the walled city as a nobody musician with a plan, a magic lute and a long memory.
His arrival comes at the same time as the Basilisk's birthday, a visiting troupe of musicians, a rebellion that is ready to move and his own son. A lyrical fantasy about music, memory and revenge.
