"Curse on your family up to the thirteenth knee!" - He throws from the flame of the fire the great master of the Order of the Templars Jacques de Molay in the face of the King of France Philip IV Beautiful. This fiery prophecy will come true: since 1314, the kings will replace each other on the throne for more than half a century, but no one will linger for a long time. Palace intrigues, sudden deaths, dynastic coups and bloody wars will accompany this gloomy procession of the damned kings.
Creating his own cycle about the incredible era, which determined the future of beautiful France, Maurice Dryon painstakingly worked in the national archive, exploring ancient documents. "Damned kings", this unique series of grandiose historical frescoes, subsequently inspired George R. R. Martin, a big fan of Druon, when working on a song of ice and flame. In the first three novels of the cycle, the king’s daughter -in -law is accused of infidelity, one king dies, then the other, rebellious barons sow the turmoil in the province, officials plunder the state treasury, hunger in the country. Personal rivalry, court intrigues, inevitable in politics dirt - or maybe all these blows of fate are really only the consequences of the curse?
