Birth of a Marquis
Prequel 1
THE DECISION IS MADE.
Honor and wisdom will make him absent from the birth of his first child. The intense pain of his departure seeming to mirror that of his eternal love’s impending labor.
But he has no choice.
Honor had long ago lifted an impassable mountain range against any selfish thoughts. While wisdom made it brilliantly clear that timely decisions, not protective fortresses, keep citizens alive. Especially at times like these.
Honor and wisdom had secured the realm for thousands of winters. So now, once again, almost reflexively, he will sacrifice. He will temporarily abandon his love, and the precious life about to join theirs.
It is the honorable decision.
It is the wise decision.
It is the wrong decision.
In “Birth of a Marquis,” Jennifer Spurgeon puts you in a time and place both endlessly fascinating and wildly unpredictable. The events she describes are like scale armor, relentless and harsh, yet moving. Equal parts heartbreaking and enlightening, “Birth of a Marquis” is a tale you will not forget.
