Synopsis

The fall of the Aztec empire was an inside job.

Meet Ali, the only Aztec eyewitness whose story contradicts the official record of the conquest of Mexico, and whose version of events the Spanish Crown, the Vatican, and the Tlaxcalteca Axis powers suppressed for hundreds of years...until now.

Tenochtitlan Must Fall is book 1 in Gabriel Hugo's historical fiction series titled "The X Series," which offers an alternative view of history based on the true story of the Aztec. Get ready to disbelieve your eyes as the long-held version of the conquest of the Aztecs shatters like a hollow clay idol.

From the Inside Flap

​Ali has been languishing for days caught up in a dream world between dual realities of his life stages. In one reality, he is still a boy living in Mazatzintamalco, reluctantly working in the chinampas with his father, sharing experiences of youth with his best friend, Iztli, and later discovering love at the summit of Little Chapultepec hill in the arms of Huani, all the while dreaming of growing up to become a pochtecatl (merchant) and traveler.

In the other reality, Ali keeps waking up on his presumed deathbed now older (about 19 years of age) to realize that he has been dreaming of his past experiences as a child while recuperating at the home of his parents, which he had not lived in since he ran away at age 14 to find adventure in the great city of Tenochtitlan. But the fact of the matter is that nothing is as it seems when a soul is roaming through the vastness of space between the land of the dead and the living. Upon returning from his voyage through the underworld, Ali is poised to discover a horror beyond his imagining. The Tlatoani (Emperor) Ahuitzotl had not just sentenced him to an ordeal in the gladiatorial ring that left him nearly dead; his punishment was far more ruthless and, to Ali, unforgivable.
