Guerra santa contra el Islam en España, persecuciones religiosas y herejes quemados a lo largo del Imperio germánico, ídolos de piedra destruidos en el templo mayor de los mexicas. Así comienza una historia de tres familias y tres siglos; una historia de amistad y lealtad, de traición y fanatismo, de misiones sagradas y misterios del pasado... Un descendiente inmortal del último guerrero águila que defendió Tenochtitlan lucha para ver cumplida su obsesión: que la Catedral de México, templo del dios blanco y símbolo de la conquista, no sea concluida jamás; al tiempo que intenta aniquilar a todos los descendientes del conquistador Alonso de Ávila, mientras que la familia Morell parece tener en su destino las hogueras inquisitoriales, tanto de Europa como de América. Una novela sobre finales y principios de mundos y eras: el fin de la Edad Media y el comienzo de la era monárquica; la ruptura de la Iglesia y de Europa; la herejía que recorre el mundo; los creyentes y los herejes..., todo en torno a la construcción sin fin de la Catedral de México. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The first historical novella that revolves around the construction of the Cathedral of Mexico. The Foundation of Heaven is set at a crucial time in Mexican history: the construction of the Cathedral. Through the Aguilar, Moral, and Ávila families. Zunzunegui takes us on a journey through transition-era Mexico, with his particular style that describes a country under construction. Three families who live in colonial Mexico, united by love-hate relationships that serve to build a world of 300 years. A world that goes beyond New Spain, and which gives us a deeper view of history. Juan Miguel Zunzunegui depicts the fall of the ancient gods and the construction of a new God through the story of these characters. Loves, calamities, and deaths play out through this novel where three families respond to each other over time. Three thoughts that are perpetuated, for better or worse, until today.
