Since boyhood, he’s kept to his isolated holdings, denying himself everything he wants: the brotherhood of court, the knighthood he’s earned, even the chance to reclaim what his father lost. Solitude is safer. Solitude is control.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb-1 mt-2 whitespace-pre-line leading-relaxed first:mt-0\" data-sentry-component=\"P\" data-sentry-source-file=\"p.tsx\"\u003eThen a new king ascends, and safety becomes impossible. Bisclavret must travel to court to offer his kiss of fealty—or be branded disloyal. He arrives rough-edged and guarded, a nobleman who looks like he’s been carved out of storm weather. And the young king—lonely in a room full of courtiers, half an exile in his own palace—can’t look away.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb-1 mt-2 whitespace-pre-line leading-relaxed first:mt-0\" data-sentry-component=\"P\" data-sentry-source-file=\"p.tsx\"\u003eTo the king, Bisclavret is everything a knight should be: bold, strong, merciful. But he’s also a mystery, and the king’s interest isn’t limited to counsel. Fascination turns to longing. Longing turns to something sharper, more dangerous—because the closer they grow, the more Bisclavret’s secrets tighten like a snare. There’s an impossible gulf between them: duty and reputation, power and vulnerability, the human and the monstrous.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb-1 mt-2 whitespace-pre-line leading-relaxed first:mt-0\" data-sentry-component=\"P\" data-sentry-source-file=\"p.tsx\"\u003eAnd then Bisclavret vanishes.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb-1 mt-2 whitespace-pre-line leading-relaxed first:mt-0\" data-sentry-component=\"P\" data-sentry-source-file=\"p.tsx\"\u003eLeft with grief, unanswered questions, and a kingdom under threat, the king is forced to stand alone—held upright only by duty to his people… and the strange, steadfast loyalty of a wolf that seems to understand him better than anyone ever has.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb-1 mt-2 whitespace-pre-line leading-relaxed first:mt-0\" data-sentry-component=\"P\" data-sentry-source-file=\"p.tsx\"\u003eLush, darkly romantic, and threaded with relentless destiny, this queer retelling of the 12th-century tale of \u003cem\u003eBisclavret\u003c\/em\u003e blends myth, court intrigue, and aching tenderness into a story about what we hide, what we become, and what it costs to be seen.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb-1 mt-2 whitespace-pre-line leading-relaxed first:mt-0\" data-sentry-component=\"P\" data-sentry-source-file=\"p.tsx\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeluxe limited edition:\u003c\/strong\u003e stenciled edges, foil-stamped hardcover, and full-color illustrated endpapers (only while supplies last).\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Romantasy Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47697456922883,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0767\/7843\/8915\/files\/thewolfandhisking.avif?v=1769801054","url":"https:\/\/romantasybookshop.com\/products\/the-wolf-and-his-king-by-finn-longman","provider":"Romantasy Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
