In this vivid and clever historical reimagining of Edgar Rice Burroughs' The Mad King, DMC Cowan brings a new dimension of courtly intrigue and royal deception to life.
Set in an alternate version of 18th-century England, The Mad King George follows Edward of Braemoor, a noble cousin who bears an uncanny resemblance to the ailing King George III. When the king vanishes during a bout of madness, Edward is forced into the spotlight, impersonating the monarch to maintain political stability. But as rumors swirl and tensions rise, Queen Charlotte-a regal, light-skinned Black queen of Moorish descent-begins to suspect the man beside her may not be the king she married.
This richly illustrated adaptation blends Grand Manner portraiture with sharp wit, romantic tension, and political gamesmanship, offering a visually stunning and emotionally resonant take on mistaken identity, loyalty, and love.
