After some chastisement, she dispatches her nephew to take care of the dreaded Land and Sea Raiders, pirates who've been attacking the realm's monasteries. So begins a possibly dommed tour of banished relatives and pompous royals put in charge of monasteries like Cort Doce and Cort Malestan, to name a few. While attempting to discover the truth of what the pirates might be after, the legate visits great libraries and halls in each varied locale and conducts a romance of which he knows - but doesn't care - his aunt will not approve. With enough wit and derring-do (and luck), the narrator might just make it through his mission alive...or will he?" --Flap inside front cover. 650 0 $a Pirates $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Monasteries $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Secrecy $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Fantasy fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722054611.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F3213278EAB311EB95DB475F3FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
