Publisher's Synopsis
"The Fool" carries on from where "The Golden Son" left off. As the third and final book in the "A Jester's Tear" trilogy, all will be revealed, including the long, dark history of the mysterious Firebird, and the secret society of Cashi nobles who once sought to bring about its resurrection. What is the Wizard Biercheart's connection to the creature? And also, why has he sought out the infamous Pearl of Oisin? Learn what will become of Heremon, now a captive of his old rival, the Paramour D'Akar, transforming into something unnatural. Follow the journey of the Princess Aurora, as she tries to make progress through dangerous Vermillia, while evading the mechanical monstrosities that hunt her. See Shiel, the mysterious Sheelian warrior, finally join in the battle and ride to Cashel on his impressive steed Violet Jade, to war with the King's Zodiachrum, as his ancesters have now blessed him with the freedom to choose which conflicts are his to fight. Watch as Namba and the old Ox Toal follow Padua and his army of savage Oshabi into an inevitable collision with the forces in the north. And of course, discover what will become of Milo and his little friends, Rolaf and Reelay, as the Fool presses forward through the treacherous Lothian Jungle, on a path to discover their fate, and how their journey fits into the entire scheme of things. To Matudan they head, in the heart of the evil forest of Echlin, no more dark and deadly place in all the New World.
