Both novels presented in this volume belong to his other series – “Youth of Henry IV”, which also had considerable success. It narrates about the deadly battle for the French crown of two opposing camps. In one are Henry of Navarre, his wife Margarita and the Gascon nobles devoted to him. In another, hostile group – the Dowager Queen Catherine Medici, her sons Charles IX and Henry III, her close – “black villain” of Florence Rene and Duke Giz. An abundance of acute situations, love conflicts and incredible fractures of an adventure plot supports the irresistible interest of readers.
