Brokedown Palace is a stand-alone fantasy in the world of Steven Brust's bestselling Vlad Taltos novels.

Once upon a time...far to the East of the Dragaeran Empire, four brothers ruled in Fenario:

King Laszlo, a good man--though perhaps a little mad; Prince Andor, a clever man--though perhaps a little shallow; Prince Vilmos, a strong man--though perhaps a little stupid; and Prince Miklos, the youngest brother, perhaps a little--no, a lot-stubborn.

Reviews for Brokedown Palace (#1 Dragaera)

Brust is an indubitable master of swashbuckling high fantasy. -- Booklist on Five Hundred Years After Steven Brust just might be America's best fantasy writer. --Tad Williams on Steven Brust Watch Steven Brust. He's good. He moves fast. He surprises you. Watching him untangle the diverse threads of intrigue, honor, character and mayhem from amid the gears of a world as intricately constructed as a Swiss watch is a rare pleasure. --Roger Zelazny on Steven Brust Delightful, exciting and sometimes brilliant, Steven Brust is the latest in a line of great Hungarian writers, which (I have no doubt) includes Alexandre Dumas, C. S. Forester, Mark Twain, and the author of the juciest bits of the Old Testament. --Neil Gaiman on Steven Brust
