THE CROWN OF NAVARRE AND CRESCENT MOON: Volume I

Set in the harsh 10th century, "The Crown of Navarre and the Crescent - Volume I" follows the aging King Fortún Garcés, scarred by twenty years of captivity in Córdoba, and Amina, a noblewoman of mixed Muslim and Christian heritage sent to Pamplona as a guarantee of peace. Their clandestine love unleashes a political earthquake: nobles, clergy, and former allies conspire to prevent the son of a Muslim woman from inheriting the throne. Palace intrigues, sieges, and betrayals lead to a final showdown with Sancho Garcés, the warlord who aspires to impose "only the cross" in Navarre. This first part spans from court life to war, from desire to downfall, and concludes with the king's overthrow. A historical novel with a relentless pace, complex characters, and an unfiltered look at the frontier between two worlds.
