About This Book
The narrative follows an emperor who defies a long naming tradition for his newborn heir, setting off a bitter controversy that splits the populace into rival factions, provokes riots and mutual reprisals, and emboldens an ambitious relative to conspire. Political violence forces the imperial household into exile, while supporters from elsewhere gather forces and attempt a restoration. The young prince encounters grave peril and narrowly escapes with assistance, and the story balances tense power struggles with episodes of civic confusion and satirical misadventure as the realm confronts the consequences of a seemingly small choice.
