About this book

In a small imaginary German principality, the dreamy, book-loving Prince Otto neglects his throne while his beautiful, ambitious wife and a scheming minister maneuver for power, until a crisis forces the prince to discover his own courage and heart. Stevenson blends romance, court intrigue, and gentle irony in this stylish, fairy-tale-like novel of politics and marriage. More reflective than his adventure classics, it explores self-knowledge, love, and the burdens of rule with wit and grace. An elegant, lesser-known gem, Prince Otto shows Stevenson experimenting with the romance of an old Europe, delivering a charming tale of a ruler who must learn to be worthy of his crown.
