The hero of the moment in Germany is a dead but irresistibly romantic king who freely crossed the line between reality and fantasy.
Across Bavaris and the rest of Germany, exhibitions and performances are being staged to celebrate the memory of Ludwig II, the still loved "Mad King" who was born 156 years ago.
Dr. Rutter has given us a faithful English translation of the original German pastiche written by Peter Neugebauer. There are many period illustrations to highlight the text. The mystery of the mad King of Bavaria, whose legacy of beautiful castles is still with us today will intrigue and titillate the mystery reader from start to finish.
