The Legend of the Enchanted Mora

Synopsis

A story of impossible love, treason and war at the wildest border of Castile. In Castile of the twelfth century, where steel and word seal destinations, a young gentleman with noble lineage, Don Rodrigo de Pastrana, was sent to the fortress of Sorita to serve under the command of veteran Captain Don Alvar Fáñez. There, between the tensions of a living border and the ambition of noble Rivals, Rodrigo discovers a prison carved onto the rock where a mysterious dwelt princess sings every night with a full moon. His voice bewitches. Her look breaks centuries of hate. And his love awakes old pacts that neither the cross nor the half moon can afford. While the kingdoms of Castile and Al-Ándalus are preparing for a new holy war, Rodrigo and the princess challenges kings, creeds and armies. But at border ground, no oath is holy, and treason lurks under the same walls that promise honor. Inspired by a true legend of the heart of the Alcarria - still living in the memory of pastors and growers - this novel intertwines historic events with a passion so powerful that centuries, religion and death pass by. From the Zorita's moors to Iuliana's hidden caves, each page breathes powder, blood and hope. Because there's love that burns beyond time. And there are names that only the moon remembers.
