The War of Granada, The Last throne of Al- Ándalus

Synopsis

The War of Granada, The Last throne of Al- Ándalus (Blood, sweat and iron) The final throne of Al-Ándalus fell in the winter of 1492. But La Guerra de Granada: The last throne of Al-Ándalus isn't just the account of an conquest but the chronicle of a decade of iron, powder and calculation where they faced not only armies but visions of the world. From the palate intrigues of the Alhambra to the cold determination of the Catholic Kings, from the stated ambition of Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba to the grave shadow of Cisneros, from the broken honor of Boabdil to the emergence of a Visionaire called Colón, this novel rebuilds the end of a kingdom with historic rigor and epic breath. There's no modern romanticism or caricature of defeat here. There's hunger, diplomacy, black powder, cold marble, unwavering faith and decisions that weigh more than a sword. War is waged with iron but decided with patience, ink and will. Granada goes down. Castile and Aragon sign up. And the world, so far closed by walls, begins to open up to the sea. A chronicle of kings and betrayments, of honor and calculation, of sunset and dawn. The end of an age. The beginning of another. An epic and human work, faithful to the spirit of the series Blood, sweat and iron, where history isn't told from the palaces but from the blood-stained stone of those who resisted.
