Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Two worlds moving toward an unavoidable reckoning.In the final years of the Inca Empire, Tawantinsuyu stands unrivaled-vast, disciplined, and bound together by sacred law. But when the Sapa Inca Huayna Capac dies unexpectedly, his sons, Atahualpa and Huáscar, are drawn into a ruthless civil war that will tear at the foundations of their world.Through the lives of Inca nobles, generals, priests, and families sworn to the empire, The Conquest of Liberty immerses readers in a civilization of remarkable engineering, devotion, and order-where loyalty is sacred, sacrifice is demanded, and power is believed to flow from the gods themselves. As ancient traditions collide with ambition and fear, unity gives way to bloodshed, prophecy, and betrayal.Across the sea, a very different story unfolds.Martín, a young Spaniard shaped by hardship, faith, and violence, is swept into the restless tide of a rising empire. His journey carries him through perilous crossings, brutal encounters, and moral trials that test his loyalty and his soul. Each hard-won step draws him deeper into a world driven by conquest, gold, and the promise of eternal glory-though he cannot yet see where that road will lead.The Inca do not know Martín exists. Martín does not know the Inca await him.Woven from meticulous research and vivid imagination, The Conquest of Liberty is not a tale of conquest from the moment of invasion, but the story of what comes before-the internal fractures, the quiet decisions, and the human struggles that make conquest possible.This sweeping historical epic lays the groundwork for the collision of civilizations that will follow, exploring leadership and legitimacy, faith and ambition, and the fragile boundary between order and liberty.For readers of Bernard Cornwell, Conn Iggulden, and lovers of deeply textured historical fiction, The Conquest of Liberty is a powerful opening to an epic series about empires, identity, and the cost of history itself.
