O knihe
In the sprawling kingdom of Eldros, where the line between truth and deception is as fragile as a thread, A Tale of Liars unfolds as an epic saga of betrayal, ambition, and the dark art of manipulation. At the heart of this tale lies a kingdom on the brink of civil war, torn apart by a web of lies spun by those in power, each lying to gain control, protect their secrets, or protect their own fragile grasp on reality. The story follows three unlikely characters, each caught in the tangled web of deceit, each carrying secrets that could destroy not only themselves but the very kingdom they call home. Thorne, a charming and enigmatic nobleman, is the kingdom's most skilled liar. Trained in the ancient art of deception, he uses his talents to sway court politics, manipulate allegiances, and secure his place among the royal elite. However, his greatest lie lies buried deep within him-one he dares not speak aloud. As the kingdom teeters on the brink of war, Thorne finds himself drawn into a dangerous game of manipulation, where the stakes are higher than ever, and the truth is a weapon as deadly as any sword. Isolde, a brilliant and cunning spy for the Queen, has spent her life crafting elaborate deceptions to protect the monarchy. Raised as an orphan in the shadowy underworld of Eldros, Isolde learned to lie before she could even walk, using her skills to infiltrate enemy factions and extract secrets from the most dangerous minds. But Isolde's loyalties are not as clear as they once seemed, and she harbors a secret that could turn the entire kingdom against her. As the lies surrounding the Queen's reign begin to unravel, Isolde finds herself questioning the true cost of loyalty and what happens when the lies we tell ourselves are the only things keeping us alive. Liora, a young woman from the peasant class with no title, no power, and no name in the eyes of the kingdom's nobles, unknowingly becomes the key to a truth far greater than any of the kingdom's ruling elite could have imagined. When she uncovers a forbidden truth about the royal bloodline, she becomes the target of those who will stop at nothing to silence her-and to ensure that the kingdom's greatest lie remains hidden forever. Liora's journey is one of survival, but it is also a search for meaning in a world where everyone seems to be hiding something, and she must decide whether the truth is worth dying for. As these three characters' fates intertwine, they are forced to confront the consequences of their own lies-and those of others. In a kingdom where lies are currency, and the truth is a deadly weapon, no one can be trusted, and no alliance is guaranteed to last. Whether in the royal palace, the shadows of the marketplace, or the dark corners of the kingdom's forgotten ruins, secrets will be exposed, alliances will shift, and no one will escape unscathed. A Tale of Liars is a gripping tale of intrigue, loyalty, and treachery, where deception is as powerful as magic, and the greatest danger is the truth itself. As the lies build upon each other and the fabric of reality begins to unravel, the three protagonists must each face the question: How far are they willing to go to protect the lies they've built their lives upon-and how much of the truth will they sacrifice in order to save themselves and the kingdom? In a world of constant deception, the greatest challenge may not be surviving the lies-but surviving when the lies are all that keep the world from falling apart.
