MediaDB / «Queen Candace" by Karl Schroeder: download fb2, read online
About the book: year / Venus Fanning was last seen falling into the void at the end of Sun of Suns. Now, in Queen of Candace, Venus finds herself swept through the air between Virga's artificial worlds, far from home and her husband, who may or may not be alive. Landing among the ancient nation of Spira, Venus encounters new enemies and new friends (or at least temporary allies). She must quickly figure out who she can trust and who she can manipulate in order to survive. Survival, however, is not her only goal: with the powerful Key to Candace, she can control the fate of all of Virga. And yet, there is something stronger than the lust for power - this is the all-consuming desire for revenge. The first book about the world of Virga, "Sun of Suns" was a book of travel, courage and struggle of a simple pilot Hayden Griffin in an almost endless world of air. This second book, Queen of Candace, is a book of intrigue, insight and struggle of the aristocratic Venus Fanning in the vastest of the Principalities of Candace..
