The epic struggle between the New World and the Old continues in this international bestselling adventure by the author of The Puma’s Shadow.

Into this conflict are drawn Gabriel Montelucar y Flores, a young Spanish nobleman, and Anamaya, daughter of an Incan princess. As two very different cultures collide, Anamaya must remain loyal to her Emperor, while Gabriel has no choice but to fight alongside his commander, Captain Pizarro. Yet for the sake of their impossible love, Anamaya and Gabriel are prepared to sacrifice everything . . .

The second thrilling book in the Incas Trilogy, perfect for fans of Conn Iggulden and Ken Follett.

Praise for The Puma’s Shadow

“What Gary Jennings did for the Aztecs, Daniel attempts to do for the Incas. . . . Daniel’s rich historical detail is in perfect proportion to his narrative, always enhancing and never slowing down the action, which is considerable. This is a robust and well-balanced adventure.” —Publishers Weekly
