Publisher's Synopsis
There's an old English legend which states that cats have their own king, and that this feline king can speak in a human voice. But the cats guard their king carefully, lest humans capture him and use him for their own purposes.In this tale based on the old legend, a new king is crowned, but his reign has scarcely begun when he is informed by a feline oracle that he is destined to face terrible difficulties. He will suffer terror and pain; he will end his life in exile. Worst of all, he learns that he is destined to be captured by a human who knows his secret.From that moment on, the new King of the Cats realizes that the golden crown upon his head, for all the glory it represents, is also a heavy burden.
