A BRAND NEW TRILOGY from the author of the legendary WITCHER series, set during the vibrantly depicted Hussite wars. Reinmar of Bielau, called Reynevan, flees after being caught in an affair with a knight's wife. With strange, mystical forces gathering in the shadows and pursued not only by the Stercza brothers bent on vengeance, but also by the Holy Inquisition, Reynevan finds himself in the Narrenturm, the Tower of Fools, a medieval asylum for the mad, or for those who dare to think differently and challenge the prevailing order. The 'patients' of this institution form an incomparable gallery of colourful types: including, among others, the young Copernicus, proclaiming the truth of the heliocentric solar system.

Two decades into the 21st Century, the U.S. faces unprecedented division, more diverse in beliefs and culture than ever. Red and blue states, secular and religious groups, and liberal and conservative factions all feel their cultures and liberties are under threat from escalating violence. This polarized tribalism, driven by extreme voices on both sides, dismisses dialogue as weakness and risks leading to secession. Through a blend of cutting-edge research and fair analysis, the book presents a stark examination of the growing ideological divide and its potential consequences. It outlines chilling scenarios where the U.S. could fracture into regions, weakening the nation and destabilizing the world. However, the future is not predetermined. By embracing James Madison's vision of pluralism, where everyone can form communities reflecting their values, we can prevent oppressive factions from gaining absolute power and protect diverse beliefs across all states. Rebuilding national unity demands courage and a commitment to kindness, decency, and grace towards ideological opponents. The call is for true tolerance to heal the American divide, emphasizing that to remain united, we must learn to stand together once more.

Leo Bonhart, the man who chased, wounded and tortured Ciri, is still on her trail. And the world is still at war.
