In a dystopian society where the church's influence is unchecked and Martin Luther's reformation never occurred, ten-year-old Hubert Anvil, gifted with an extraordinary voice, faces a pivotal choice when the Church demands he become a castrato. This decision could lead to fame and fortune or keep him connected to the adult world he longingly wishes to explore. The story explores themes of individual desire versus societal authority in a richly imagined, oppressive world.
