Sixteen-year-old Cleo
has grown up in luxury, the royal heiress to a prosperous kingdom. But
beneath her nation’s seemingly peaceful surface lies dangerous unrest.
Whispers of war are growing ever louder—intensified by a murderous
incident for which Cleo’s betrothed, Aron, is accused.
Amidst the ongoing intrigue, Cleo has a more desperate mission. She defies her father’s orders and sets off on a secret and perilous journey into a neighboring country, seeking a magic long thought to be mythical. If it’s real, it could be the cure that heals her ailing sister. If it’s only legend, Cleo will be stranded in a kingdom that has just declared war on her own.

Tanara Cleo, de 16 ani, a crescut in lux, ca mostenitoare a unui regat prosper. Dar sub calmul aparent al natiunii ei, exista framantari periculoase. Soapte privind razboiul se aud din ce in ce mai puternic - amplificate de un incident criminal de care este acuzat Aron, logodnicul lui Cleo.
In mijlocul intrigii ce se desfasoara, Cleo are o misiune si mai disperata. Sfideaza ordinele tatalui sau si porneste intr-o calatorie secreta si periculoasa in tara vecina, in cautarea unei magii considerata de mult un mit. Daca este adevarata, ar putea fi leacul pentru vindecarea surorii ei suferinde. Daca este doar o legenda, Cleo va fi pierduta intr-un regat care abia a declarat razboi regatului ei.
This sensational series debut melds intricate storylines with unforgettable characters and vibrantly imagined magic. Falling Kingdoms is ideal for fans of Kristin Cashore, Cinda Williams Chima, and George R.R. Martin.

imi place coperta, ne anunta ca fata este neinfricata si curajoasa.
sunt sigura ca exista si un firicel de romantisc pe acolo, mai exact in regatul pe care-l viziteaza cu un scop anume :)
@Cristinab, bine punctat! e chiar frumoasa coperta!
bperta e frumoasa, misterioasa si fata chiar e curajoasa, desi seri asemanatoare, precum Eragon, mi-au placut, nu pot spunce ca acesta ma trage la prima vedere
Coperta e draguta, dar nu e una dintre cele care ma da pe spate de la prima vedere. Se pare ca are un mic mister si curanj si da, e lucrata bine; nu vad detalii care sa strice ceva din imagine.
Imi place ca Cleo isi sfideaza tatal pentru ca arata cat este de curajoasa si de iubitoare pentru ca vrea sa isi ajute sora.
Waw ! E chiar foarte interesanta !
Am crezut ca , Cleo pleaca sa caute o solutie pt a-si salva logodnicul !
Ciudat :-?
