Sinopse

In "The Lost Prince," Frances Hodgson Burnett weaves a richly imagined narrative that combines elements of adventure and fantasy with poignant explorations of identity and belonging. Set against the backdrop of the fictional European kingdom of Samandra, the story follows young Marco, who embarks on a quest to protect the rightful heir to the throne, intertwining themes of loyalty and courage. Burnett'Äôs stylistic prose is imbued with vivid descriptions, allowing readers to immerse themselves in this fantastical world that mirrors the political tumult of her time, as she cleverly critiques societal norms and the concept of nobility. Frances Hodgson Burnett, an accomplished author known for her works such as "The Secret Garden" and "A Little Princess," drew upon her experiences as an immigrant and her keen observations of Victorian society while penning this tale. Her personal background'Äîexperiencing both the challenges of poverty and the uplifting power of imagination'Äîshapes her narratives, imbuing them with a sense of hope and resilience. "The Lost Prince" reflects her belief in the transformative power of bravery and friendship. I wholeheartedly recommend "The Lost Prince" to readers seeking a blend of fantasy and profound moral lessons. Burnett's timeless storytelling and heartfelt characters continue to resonate with audiences, making this book a cherished addition to any literary collection.

Now she is scheming to destroy Finn, who has just been given a precious gift by the Thrig of Tone, himself imprisoned in the wicked sorceress’s spell. Finn will need all his courage and cunning to outwit Drabne and lay a trap for Goll McMorna, the war chief who slew his father. On his journey from boyhood to manhood, Finn meets an ancient wizard, an ice-breathing dragon, and a fiend named Vilemurk, among others, in this imaginative retelling of one of Ireland’s most enduring myths.
