Chronicles of Marsh

Chronicles of Marsh is book 9 of the Princelings of the East series, and fills a gap between previous books and the final one, Princelings Revolution, due next year. It takes us from Fred''s first days as king, to the loss of the latest and most promising flying machine, a period of 8 years. The pressures of modern life will be familiar to readers, even if the princelings world doesn''t have the internet and mobile communications... yet.Gone are the years of innocence when the Princelings of the East travelled for adventure, and uncovered time tunnels and pirate plots. Fred decides to write the Chronicles of Marsh as a history of his reign. He starts with the joy of his inheritance, but quickly shows us that developments in the Realms are not leading towards a settled and happy future.
