Court Charade HC
Description
From the New York Times bestselling illustrators of Beauty and Beautiful Darkness comes a fleet, tongue-in-cheek adult fairy tale graphic novel where love arises in the least likely places and nothing is what it seems. This sharp, witty take on toxic workplaces blends court intrigue with rogueish charm and a dash of romance. Serine, a poor but plucky daughter of a sickly nobleman, must navigate the royal court to avoid an arranged marriage after her father dies. Illiterate and owning only one dress, she nonetheless wins the queen’s favor—while the court remains a treacherous maze of gossip, schemes, and flirtations. With help from a friendly torturer’s apprentice and her wits, she must outsmart rivals, save her position, and perhaps find true love along the way. Will she endure—and triumph—or be forced to play the fool?
