What happens when there are two Imperial enchanters available to advise the Russian Tsar? Since the magic cannot be diluted, a Crown’s Game must be declared, with only one outcome. The most powerful enchanter will win, and the other must die. For Nikolai and Vika, it will take all their strength to outmaneuver the other. This new historical fantasy by Evelyn Skye is a quick read; it also incorporates romance, betrayal and power struggles, with an ending that paves the way for a sequel. Recommended for grades 8 & up.
