Siglo XIII, Reino de Castilla. El joven Beltrán López de Cazorla, hijo de un héroe de las Navas de Tolosa y de una antigua dama de la reina Berenguela, intenta desesperadamente emular las hazañas de su padre, aunque fracasa una y otra vez por su torpeza con las armas. Empeñado en demostrar su valÃa como guerrero, se embarcará en una peligrosa aventura que lo llevará a infiltrarse en Córdoba en calidad de espÃa y a protagonizar un trepidante viaje para recuperar las campanas robadas al Apóstol por Almanzor, esta vez a hombros de cautivos sarracenos.
Con una narración apasionante de la famosa batalla de las Navas de Tolosa y la conquista de la antigua capital del califato, Isabel San Sebastián retoma la leyenda recogida en Las campanas de Santiago y continúa con su épica serie de novelas dedicadas a relatar ocho siglos decisivos en la historia de España.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Following the success of The Reckless One, Isabel San Sebastián continues her ambitious Saga of the Reconquista with the Christian victory at Las Navas de Tolosa and the rescue of the bells of Santiago Cathedral.
13th century, Kingdom of Castile. The young Beltrán López de Cazorla, son of a hero of Las Navas de Tolosa and a former lady-in-waiting to Queen Berenguela, desperately tries to emulate his father's exploits, but fails time and again due to his clumsiness with weapons. Determined to prove his worth as a warrior, he embarks on a dangerous adventure that will lead him to infiltrate Cordoba as a spy and embark on a thrilling journey to recover the bells stolen to the Apostle by Almanzor, this time on the shoulders of Saracen captives.
With a thrilling account of the famous battle of Las Navas de Tolosa and the conquest of the ancient capital of the Caliphate, Isabel San Sebastián revisits the legend recounted in The Bells of Santiago and continues her epic series of novels dedicated to recounting eight decisive centuries in the history of Spain.
