The soul of beasts

Ángela Vallvey transcends the canons of the historical genre in this ambitious new novel.

A bloodied child lost in the forest. A queen too young to accept her destiny. A Sephardic Jew who guards a mysterious book. A warrior who demands justice. A killer who slaughters like an animal...

These are some of the characters that parade through the pages of this fascinating story, which takes place between the years of Jesus Christ and the medieval kingdom of León in the time of El Cid. A thrilling adventure that mixes historical and anonymous characters in dark and violent times in which, despite everything, men and women dared to travel uncertain paths and face unimaginable dangers to fulfill their destiny.
