From Russian Literary Giant to the Tsar’s Godfather

After transmigrating into the poorest duke in history, Wolkonsky only wants to make money and stay alive!

His start-up capital: eighteen paper rubles, a threadbare old coat, and a servant who is nearly starving to death.

To pay the rent, he has no choice but to pick up his pen, and accidentally becomes a top-tier star in the literary world.

To secure investment, he has no choice but to write love letters, and accidentally wins Russia’s most dazzling rose.

For his own safety, he has no choice but to advise the tsar, and accidentally becomes the tsar’s trusted confidant.

To live in peace, he has no choice but to help Russia, and accidentally shatters Napoleon’s dreams.

To protect his fortune, he has no choice but to take up his saber, and accidentally becomes the empire’s uncrowned king.

From a drafty attic in St. Petersburg, to a grand duchess’s boudoir, and then to the side of the throne in the Kremlin.

Yesterday you ignored me. Tomorrow, you won’t be worthy to look up to me. And I’ll make sure my name is written in your textbooks, too.
