Who is the fool and who is the fooled? Prince Florin and his father, King Philip, attend a banquet in the court of their former enemy, expecting peace at last for their war-torn kingdom. What greets them is a devastating betrayal. The king is humiliated and imprisoned, but Florin's fate is far stranger. Forced to live in a stable, at the mercy of Mimus, the wily court jester, Florin is close to despair . until he uncovers clues to a secret plot. There may be hope, but can he entrust his life to the whim of a manipulative fool? An intense medieval adventure story, highly acclaimed for its almost unbearable suspense. 'Mimus is a splendid tale of high adventure and low humour, of treachery and cruelty and unexpected kindness. This wonderfully written epic will chill your blood, tickle your funny bone, and warm your heart.' Karen Cushman, Newbery Medal Winner
