John Buchan's sweeping episodic novel chronicles the journey of a kingly spirit, passed like a torch from generation to generation, manifesting in warriors, woodsmen, and wanderers who may never know the noble inheritance they carry within them.\n\nBuchan, the masterly Scottish author best known for The Thirty-Nine Steps, brings his characteristic vigour and romantic sensibility to this ambitious work, weaving together a tapestry of vignettes that span continents and ages. Each chapter stands as its own self-contained adventure, yet all are bound by a grand, almost mythic inevitability — the idea that greatness cannot be extinguished, only passed on. It is a meditation on heritage, fate, and the quiet heroism of history's forgotten figures, leaving the reader to wonder: in whose veins does that ancient blood now run?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49160995635419,"sku":"2026200014128-SECONDHAND","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/fb0bfe67-cd4d-4e66-8d1f-0211809508c2.png?v=1787188671","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200014128-secondhand-the-path-of-the-king","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
