In the early 1530s, the Inca Empire still stretches across the Andes with roads, temples, storehouses, messengers, sacred gold, and the authority of the Sapa Inca. To Illa Tupaq, a lesser nobleman of Cuzco, the world is ordered by obligation, ritual, and hierarchy. To Killa Sisa, a chosen woman of the Sun, gold is not wealth but sacred light.
Then bearded men arrive from the sea.
Francisco Pizarro's Spaniards are few, hungry, armored, and desperate for fortune. Among them are Alonso de VillacÃs, a veteran soldier seeking his share of glory, and Father Rodrigo de Segura, a priest increasingly troubled by the violence surrounding his mission.
As Atahualpa approaches Cajamarca, the Incas believe the strangers can be contained within familiar rules of diplomacy and gift exchange. The Spaniards see something else: gold, power, and opportunity.
Told in paragraph-by-paragraph English and Spanish, The Sun and the Men of Iron / El sol y los hombres de hierro is a historical fiction novel about first contact, cultural misreading, sacred wealth, conquest, and the tragic fall of Atahualpa.
