Numantia is burning
Blood, sweat and Iron · Book 4
Synopsis
"That book is dedicated to the slave who consumed his life in the shadows of oblivion, to an unknown soldier who found death by his general's ambition. But first and foremost, it's dedicated to all those who, regardless of age, earth and price, gave up their existence for defending their freedom." "Arde Numancia" unfolds as an exciting chronic, submerging itself into the depths of one of the most tumultuous periods of Hispania: the beginning of the Roman conquest after the Punic Wars. That historic novel brings the reader to a time at which the freedom of the Celtibers pits with a thread before the relentless advance of Rome. The narrative focuses on Numancia's heroic resistance, narrating the rise from the perspective of a range of beesight and Aravac warriors. Those characters, loaded with courage and hope, are drawn to a destination marked by war and tragedy. From the beginning of the conflict at Segeda, passing through the victory of Charos at Vulcania, to the fall of the mythical Numance at the hands of Publio Cornelio Scipion, history unfolds as a tapestry of war, passion and ambition. "Arde Numancia" is an emotional and vibrant journey that with mastery rebuilds a people's fight for his freedom. The novel goes beyond time to show that the search for liberty is a universal and timeless feeling, as important today as it was two thousand years ago. With a master mix of historic facts and narrative fiction, "Arde Numancia" is not only a window to the past but also a mirror that reflects contemporary struggles for autonomy and dignity. That work did not only pay tribute to the courage and sacrifice of a people but also called for reflection on human nature and its relentless fight for freedom and justice.
