As Daniel and Newton conspire, an increasingly vicious struggle is waged for England's Crown: who will take control when the ailing queen dies? Tories and Whigs clash as one faction jockeys to replace Queen Anne The System Of The World - Neal Stephenson od authora Neal Stephenson a nakladatelství za skvělé ceny na e-shopu Martinus. cz.
