Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book transports readers to 16th-century Spain, a time of immense change and upheaval. The narrative intertwines historical events with fictional characters, offering a glimpse into the complex world of the Spanish court under the reign of King Don Carlos, later known as Emperor Charles V. The story unfolds against the backdrop of the final years of the Reconquista, the centuries-long struggle between Christians and Moors for control of the Iberian Peninsula. As the Spanish monarchy consolidates its power, figures like Christopher Columbus emerge, seeking royal patronage for ambitious voyages of discovery. The author skillfully weaves together these historical threads with the fictional tale of Don Inigo Velasco de Haro, a nobleman entangled in a web of love, loss, and adventure. Themes of loyalty, ambition, and the clash between tradition and progress are explored through the lives of the characters. The book delves into the motivations and desires that drive individuals, from the pursuit of love and personal fulfillment to the quest for power and wealth.
