The Alchemist's Crown

Opis

Alternate 1573 Poland-Lithuania, King Sigismund II falls under spell of alchemist Heinrich von Paracelsus, draining treasury and issuing worthless „transmuted” coin. Only Royal Treasurer Chryzostom Tarnowski — haunted by his own youthful ruin by the same Basel fraudster — recognizes the con. With his gambler son, & Sigismund III the Catholic prince-heir, & Cardinal Radziwiłł, he races to expose the swindler before civil war and Habsburg invasion destroy the realm.
