英文简介:
#1 New York Times bestselling author Chloe Gong’s adult epic fantasy debut.
Inspired by Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra, Immortal Longings is a fiery collision of power plays, spilled blood, and romance amidst a set of deadly games.
Every year, thousands in the kingdom of Talin will flock to its capital twin cities, San-Er, where the palace hosts a set of games.
For those confident enough in their ability to jump between bodies, competitors across San-Er fight to the death to win unimaginable riches.
Princess Calla Tuoleimi lurks in hiding.
Five years ago, a massacre killed her parents and left the palace of Er empty.
.
.
and she was the one who did it.
Before King Kasa’s forces in San can catch her, she plans to finish the job and bring down the monarchy.
Her reclusive uncle always greets the victor of the games, so if she wins, she gets her opportunity at last to kill him.
Enter Anton Makusa, an exiled aristocrat.
His childhood love has lain in a coma since they were both ousted from the palace, and he’s deep in debt trying to keep her alive.
Thankfully, he’s one of the best jumpers in the kingdom, flitting from body to body at will.
His last chance at saving her is entering the games and winning.
Calla finds both an unexpected alliance with Anton and help from King Kasa’s adopted son, August, who wants to mend Talin’s ills.
But the three of them have very different goals, even as Calla and Anton’s partnership spirals into something all-consuming.
Before the games close, Calla must decide what she’s playing for–her lover or her kingdom.
中文简介:
《纽约时报》排名第一的畅销书作家 Chloe Kong 的成人史诗奇幻小说处女作。
受莎士比亚的《安东尼与克利奥帕特拉》的启发，《不朽的渴望》是一系列致命游戏中权力斗争、流血和浪漫的激烈碰撞。
每年，塔林王国的数千人都会涌向其首都双子城桑埃尔，那里的宫殿举办一系列比赛。
对于那些对自己在身体之间跳跃的能力有足够信心的人来说，三二各地的竞争者殊死搏斗，以赢得难以想象的财富。
卡拉·托雷米公主潜伏在藏身之处。
五年前，一场大屠杀杀死了她的父母，让尔王宫空无一人……而她就是凶手。
在桑卡萨国王的军队抓住她之前，她计划完成任务并推翻君主制。
她隐居的叔叔总是迎接比赛的胜利者，所以如果她赢了，她终于有机会杀死他了。
流亡贵族安东·马库萨登场。
自从他们被逐出皇宫以来，他儿时的爱情就一直处于昏迷状态，为了让她活下去，他负债累累。
值得庆幸的是，他是王国里最优秀的跳跃者之一，可以随意地从一个身体飞到另一个身体。
他拯救她的最后机会是参加比赛并获胜。
卡拉意外地与安东结盟，并得到了卡萨国王的养子奥古斯特的帮助，奥古斯特想要治愈塔林的病痛。
但他们三个人的目标却截然不同，尽管卡拉和安东的合作关系逐渐发展到了全力以赴的地步。
在比赛结束之前，卡拉必须决定她比赛的目的是什么——她的爱人还是她的王国。
