A Royal Prisoner is one of the many Fantômas novels produced by Pierre Souvestre and Marcel Allain, the duo who created the diabolical master criminal in 1911 and went on to publish dozens of sequels with relentless energy. Their thrillers are characterized by breakneck pacing, outrageous plots, and a surrealist atmosphere that captivated readers and intellectuals alike.
