  "They say now that I am mad; but they are mistaken... Young men's associations invite me, pay me, and laugh at me while I lecture. 'Linley, the mad microscopist,' is the name I go by." 
   
  In 1858, microscopy is the cutting-edge science of the day. The cell nucleus had been seen, and soon chromatic aberrations were abolished as multi lens microscopes came into being. One young man becomes obsessed with creating the perfect microscope, failing over and over again until in desperation he communes with the spirit of Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, inventor of the microscope, who tells him the key to a perfect lens. Using electromagnetic currents, he finally succeeds.  
  There follows a tale of murder, revelation, tragically doomed love, and being laughed at by students. 
   
  This is the first major microcosmic story, written over a century before before greats like Theodore Sturgeon's Microcosmic God, Asimov's Fantastic Voyage, Ant-Man, Rick and Morty, or Horton Hears a Who!

  ‘This was the original GAME OF THRONES’ George R.R. Martin 
  Available for the first time in English, THE KING WITHOUT A KINGDOM is the seventh and final volume of The Accursed Kings series. 
  The reign of the Capetian kings has ended and John II, ‘The Good’, second of the Valois dynasty, has taken the throne. 
  Under his leadership the Hundred Years War, one of the longest and bloodiest conflicts in history, escalates and England and France begin to tear each other apart. 
  Cardinal Périgord, narrating the drama, shows us a monarch as vain and cruel as he is incompetent. Under his turbulent reign, warring factions plunder the land, famine threatens the people and the Black Death spreads far and wide. France is bleeding to death around the new king. 
  Druon's historical fiction is a thrilling adventure that takes readers on a journey through mediaeval politics and military strategies. The book, hailed as one of the best in its genre, is a top-rated fantasy that paints a vivid picture of a kingdom in turmoil. 
  For fans of Ben Kane (Rome), Patrick O'Brian (The Commodore), Ken Follett (Circle of Days), Stefan Zweig (The Collected Stories of Stefan Zweig), and Robert Harris (The Cicero Trilogy).
