EL PODER EST? EN LA SANGRE

«JUEGO DE TRONOS NO ES NADA COMPARADO CON LAS INTRIGAS Y LA VIOLENCIA DE LA CASTILLA DEL SIGLO XIV . --JOS? LUIS CORRAL

1312. R?os de sangre corren por el reino de Castilla y Le?n tras la muerte de Fernando IV, cuando su hijo y heredero, Alfonso XI, tiene apenas un a?o. Mientras nobles y miembros de la corte libran una terrible lucha por hacerse con el trono, solo Mar?a de Molina y Constanza de Portugal, abuela y madre de Alfonso, lo proteger?n y urdir?n una compleja trama de intrigas y alianzas para conservar la corona que todos ambicionan.

Esta novela da comienzo a una bilog?a en la que el reputado medievalista y escritor Jos? Luis Corral aborda los reinados de Alfonso XI el Justiciero, y el de su hijo Pedro I de Castilla el Cruel. Amores prohibidos, pactos envenenados, sed de justicia y hombres despiadados dan vida a esta narraci?n fascinante.

Matar al rey captura, con una potencia narrativa desbordante, el esp?ritu del siglo m?s sangriento y cruel de la historia de Espa?a.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

THE POWER IS IN THE BLOOD.

"GAME OF THRONES IS NOTHING COMPARED TO THE INTRIGUES AND VIOLENCE IN CASTILLE, IN THE FOURTEENTH CENTURY." --JOS? LUIS CORRAL

1312. Rivers of blood run through the kingdom of Castille and Leon after the death of Ferdinand IV, when his son and heir, Alfonso XI, is but a year old. While noblemen and members of the court embroil in a terrible fight to make themselves with the throne, only Mar?a de Molina and Constanza of Portugal, Alfonso's grandmother and mother, will protect him, spinning an intricate web of intrigue and alliances to keep the crown everyone covets.

This novel is the first of two installments where renowned medievalist and writer Jos? Luis Corral addresses the rules of Alfonso XI, The Just, and of his son, Pedro I of Castille, The Cruel. Forbidden romance, poisonous pacts, a thirst for justice, and ruthless men give life to this fascinating tale.

With overflowing narrative power, To Kill the King captures the spirit of the bloodiest and most vicious century in Spanish history.
