Do you think I could request some books about courtly intrigue? Preferably adult and female-centric but I’m not too picky, and I have no preference about country/time period. Thanks so much!

“The Court of Dreams. The people who knew that there was a price, and one worth paying, for that dream. The bastard- born warriors, the Illyrian half breed, the monster trapped in a beautiful body, the dreamer born into a court of nightmares…And the huntress with an artist’s soul.”
