Synopsis
Corambis is the fourth and final novel in the Doctrine of Labyrinths series, following The Mirador. In Corambis, Prince Gerrard Hume dies attempting to activate the Cymellunar engine, a device meant to secure the region of Caloxa's independence, while Margrave Kay Brightmore, who harbored unspoken feelings for the prince, is blinded by the engine and subsequently imprisoned for it. Across the sea in Bernatha, the wizard Felix Harrowgate and his half-brother Mildmay face troubles of their own: needing money to pay for Mildmay's medical treatment, Felix takes a desperate job that draws him into a Corambin ritual, one that inadvertently activates another dangerous device known as the Clock of Eclipses and sets the brothers on a collision course with Corambis's unfolding crisis.
